I can and do intervene to keep posters on the RF from "making it personal." There is nothing I can do for a a poster who "takes it personally."

If "open" thread RF debate is uncomfortable to you, ignore them and instead read/post to the "ecumenical" "caucus" "prayer" or "devotional" threads.

How do you rationalize permitting slurs as being the responsibility of the recipient, but accusations of lying as being the responsibility of the accuser when the motive of both is to offend?

I don’t know why that

TAKING THINGS PERSONAL

is such a hard concept for some.

There’s even some Scriptural exhortations about avoiding taking unnecessary offense.

Perhaps an essay by you would help on the education front.
