Bye.
He just might be drunk.
Good Night.
Connectthedots: For the record, i'm a light drinker, and have not inbibed this evening. The point of my last to you was that i had no desire to ridicule you, nor to pick a fight with you this evening. Again for the record, i'd consider your ADD to be an infirmity, no more or less than any other problem that requires medication. i'm very surprised that you took exception to my use of the term in light of Isaiah 53:4-5.
I haven't needed medication in over a year. I still have ADD, but I simply have used some better time management techniques.
Your right. I generally do not participate in such discussions and I'm the one who started this. My apologies.
Please do not include me on your PING LISTS, whether you call them impromptu lists or saved lists. It is customary on these threads to respect another freeper's desire not to be on your lists.
Please do not ping me as part of ANY list. This leaves you free to ping me separately which is within established guidelines.
In general, I don't read lenthy posts. I've got other things to do. (It's not a hard and fast rule of mine...some writers are interesting...OP and alamo-girl, for example.)
Hint: if you write a lengthy post, don't ping me to it.
Kinda like - the only time Jean speaks with me ?
yep...precisely
Four things
1.) dont expend so much effort in your posts - I dont read them
2.) Why is it you only write to me when stirring up trouble?
3.)I paraphrased that email and specifically it was NOT and I repeat NOT a Freepmail - my understanding is the rules apply to freepmails.
4.)God has forgiven my transgressions, intentional and otherwise - why is it you dont ? every mis-statement - every slight is catalgued and held in a secret place to be thrown in our faces when contention arises
Youre a contentious, divisive person Jean - please refrain from posting me and I will do the same
Now to the point - I was accused of something by someone who could not provide a link - Now Im accused of having concerted an effort to get calvinists banned - This is silly - The only thing I have done is hit the button when they get out of line - nothing more - nothing less
Why is it you have trouble living by the rules of this privately operated board ?
FWIW - thats not entirely accurate - you clearly challenged marlowe
In your defense Harley - you are for the most part a pleasant freeper - and I think we are both mis-reading each's intentions -
Can we agree to drop this issue and forgive each others transgressions?
Sorry about that. Here are links:
xzins current statements in which he agrees with the bannings
xzins past statement defending drstevej as being "gentlemanly"

Please don't include me on your ping lists. Feel free to ping me separately.
Show me the rule, x. That it is "customary" is irrelevant. Show me where I violate FR rules by pinging you with others when I am posting to directly to you are talking about you.
Now, if you wish that I not ping you at all, then you must abide by the forum rules and refrain from discussing Calvinism.
If you follow that option, I'd gladly refrain from pinging you ever again.
"Please do not ping me as part of ANY list. This leaves you free to ping me separately which is within established guidelines."
x, the only time I ping you is when I am talking to you, or when I am talking about you. It is in accord with FR stated rules that I include you in the ping. There is no call and no need for a separate ping.
If I make a post that mentions you ~AND~ I don't post to you, I am technically in violation of FR posting rules. It appears that you are trying to make a situation where I am damned if I do and damned if I don't.
You are being petty and irrational.
Jean
Since this was a post about me, I suppose that I could throw a hissy-fit and notify the RM that you didn't ping me.
But that is not my style.
;)
Jean
I strongly advise you to seek a second opinion.
CTD, note that the so-called "proof" is from a post in 2002...and (I think) before the religion forum even existed. It's entirely possible that I've said nice things about others, too....CaRepubgal definitely.
My words also were prior to the advent of the vicious character attack campaigns of the trolls. In other words, circumstances led to changed opinions.
In 2002, I also thought that it might take years before Iraq was toppled. Subsequent events....yada, yada...
- I would say you have mis-characterized him unfairly and ask you to rethink your hurtful comments
"3.)I paraphrased that email and specifically it was NOT and I repeat NOT a Freepmail - my understanding is the rules apply to freepmails. "
If you would have actually read my post to you, you would have noted that I actually predicted you would take that defense:
Oh, you are quite correct keeping in mind that while it is against the rules to post private information from Frmail to the forum, it is not against stated FR rules to post private information from non-Frmail-email on a FR forum.
-from my Post #412
While you are correct, it is a rather lame defense.
But it was rather predictable.
"Why is it you have trouble living by the rules of this privately operated board ?"
Perhaps you could show me where I am in violation of the rules?
Thanks,
Jean
I've already moved on.
