In response to the 'State of discourse' thread that was posted yesterday: Can't we all just get along?

I've been asked to chime in, so I'm chiming. But you're not gonna like it. The state of discourse on FR is totally up to you. You know the guidelines and rules. I don't need to repeat them again and again and again. We are mostly adults here and mostly Christian conservatives. We all know how to behave in a mixed public setting. We don't need and don't want to be supervised.

Before you post that next profane post or personal attack just ask yourself, what would Jesus do.

Can't we all just get along?

Thank you all very much and God bless you.

Yes, they needed to be told they were snakes in the grass, whited sepulchres full of dead men’s bones, fools, etc. And they thanked him and felt oh so blessed.

Being blessed is not about FEELING blessed any more than love is about the feeling.

It's about the action of being given something good for you.

Likewise, sometimes showing love in action needs to be *tough love*, drawing lines and setting boundaries. It's not giving them what they want no matter how destructive it ends up being for them.

If anyone needs a, ‘non-political respite’ come visit The Garden Thread. Even if you’re not a gardener, per se, you’ll learn something and Liz posts great recipes! :)

When Greeneyes (Linda) started it years ago, she aimed for that, and since I’ve taken over, we’re still abiding by her wishes/format. We miss you, Greeneyes! *HEART*

I LOVE FR and have learned to NOT take the bait if someone disagrees with me. It’s VERY satisfying to IGNORE someone. And it REALLY irritates them. :) *Halo Slipping*

In the long run, what does it matter? In our household we say: ‘I’m right, and you’re NOT so right!’ And that goes BOTH ways depending upon the topic. :)

Oh, yeah - and kick in some CASH MONEY for the current Freep-A-Thon, all you Lurkers! ;)

So, what would your extremely distant cousin do? :-)

Well, I don’t know him too well, but his reputation is generally that of someone who would be a lot more likely to talk about a problem than resort to name-calling (though I am less certain of this WRT international banking issues).

“I try to avoid the Religion board and that has kept me out of trouble here the last few years”

Good advice. There are a lot of very nasty, un-Christian attitudes there. Of all places, on the “Religion Board.”

“Being blessed is not about FEELING blessed any more than love is about the feeling.”

Are you for real? You are probably the only person who has ever lived who thinks Jesus was blessing the Pharisees.

What kind of make-believe world do you live in?

If you don't care that it's hot—I already stole it from the internet.
