Sorry about the confusion. I mean that there is lack of interest.

Radrook

The LINK works just fine.

There is zilch interest in the subject as I can see by the the lack of participation. Even the one who sent me there and the one who posted the thread isn't participating. Strange! .

Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;Therefore my heart greatly rejoices,And with my song I will praise Him.

Judge not lest ye be judged.

See also Boochie's contribution at #972.

I think these two ideas go together beautifully, though I can't think of any words to unify them into a single prayer or hymn or aphorism or whatever. But maybe the combination is what's meant by "Grace".

And how am I judging you or anyone else here Mr' Rightious with the female name? All I did was give you my opinion about your drawing after asking for your permission. An opinion that has nothing to do with you perrsonally since I don't know you personally nor have any interest in knowing you personally. If indeed you have paranoid tendencies and hangups then please dont post drawings in which you are revealing things about yourself and will get upset and start pouting if you think they have been detected.

I'm sure you agree now (after our last exchange elsewhere) that the last thing either of us needs is perpetual bickering, especially not when it gets invasive/insulting, and not when we're starting to desecrate this particular forum. I'll just suggest you have a look at both our profile pages; mine explains the origin of the name, and yours — well, I guess you noticed it too, because I see it's now deleted. Good move — another step in the right direction. I will now go and "pout" about having to suppress the clever responses that came to mind, indulge in a little "paranoid" pondering about about how many people might see your assessment of my character for years to come, and maybe put on a frilly frock and a feathered hat before I go out to preach a sermon on a street corner, to try out my new "Mr. Righteous with a female name" identity.

PS— Thank you, Hazer and Boochie... your wise, gentle, concise words are more meaningful and helpful than you know. They have an effect even if you don't see much evidence of it.

Thanks Hazer, your words are always so kind and wise. No matter for the occasional direct comments, this 3D will always be a warm place for sharing trouble and worries in an empathic community.
I think that harsh words or behaviour can be read in many ways. Going beyond the harsh part, they give us significant information about how a person feels and what a person needs, and eventually make us able to give some help.

This reminds me of the way JWS operate whenever there is conflict between persons. The first thing they do is blame the offended angry one for beng offended and defending himself. Then they proceed to praise the offender and paint him a an innocent saint. All this without having the slightest idea of all the facts involved or merely as a mindless fanatical knee jerk reaction. Such memories make me glad I left that hell hole with its sanctimonious mutually back-patting hipocrite members. Thanks for the memory!

Radrook

BTW Chelydra

Your claim of wanting peace rings hollow. I already explained that my name is chess related yet you want to make it into a convenient source for insult. If indeed you have posted my name in an insulting way i will report it.

About desecrating thi thread, really? How?, by saying that God dies not listen to all prayers? Well, sorry to rain on your self deluded parades but he doesn't.

Desecrating the thread?
How? By defending myself against a snide remark? Funny but I think your friend's snide remark and your false self righteous Pharisaic accusations and posturings are what is desecrating and tainting this thread.

As for you guiding me? LOL! You know what Jesus said about false guides. Learn what it means to be fair and just first before offering help to others.

clorophilla

may be bc I'm not English mothertongue, but - who is JWS?

Radrook

BTW
Chelydra, wise and gentle you are not and neither are your other two impish friends. They just have the knack for attempting to savage while smiling sanctimoniously. That is all.

Radrook

You have time to mindlessly jump into matters you know nothing about but don't have time to google it? Google it!

Radrook

Yikes! Therse peple need what? Comfort? What they need is accurate biblical knowledge and a basic course in cogent reasoning and ethics.
