Just be yourself, Doser.
What anyone else thinks doesn't matter, really, because the rest of us are bent by our own opinions.
You're funny, eccentric and have your own divinely appointed idiosyncrasies.
Just be you.
In the cosmic economy we are each responsible for our own actions and reactions. I, alone, have to answer for my words and reactions...not yours.

Besides, I would rather look like a retard than a sea cucumber.

it came out of an exchange over here:
http://www.theologyonline.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4628661&postcount=158
the thread was closed in mid-rebuttal
i was curious to know why tam thought it appropriate to describe my relating of my experiences as "charging" and how it was wrong for me to do so and sinful
and why she doesn't apply that same logic to herself, in relating her experience with the men she claims raped her
or rusha, when rusha relates her experiences with her ex-husband

Cats don't like cucumbers!:shocked:
My thoughts? When you expose bad things that your wife allegedly committed, you are betraying someone who is not able to speak for herself. She is still, apparently your wife and the mother of your children? It is not proper, it seems to me, for you to do that.
I would hope that you could be reconciled or free to find happiness for yourself elsewhere.

why doesn't the same consideration apply to tam and rusha?
should tam's rapists be given a voice here to speak for themselves?
and if not, should tam remain silent about it?
should rusha's husband be given a voice here to speak for himself?
and if not, should rusha remain silent about their relationship?
nori's described aspects of her personal life in the past, including descriptions of her daughter and her ex
where was the faux outrage then?
or is this just a misandry thing?
it's ok for women to do it, but not men

Personal jabs aside, I always thought of charging as a legal term. Being charged with assault and battery, for example. Where as accusing, in my mind, is more informal. I can accuse you of stealing my bike without placing charges.

i know
it was kinda weird last night
besides - accusing or charging someone, in my mind, means confronting them
The difference is when we expose our spouses we expose ourselves.
Tam exposed a criminal act.
I am not outraged. I thought I would attempt a reasoned response to your post.
I do not mean you any harm. I pray that you do have a satisfactory resolution to your situation.
I am weary of fighting with people on TOL.

i disagree
in a just world, my wife's adultery would be a criminal act
and you ignored the part about rusha and nori

I agree, there is no shortage of accusations around here for sure. :thumb:
I just don't see the benefit of finding fault with people I love.
And even people I don't love are still beloved of God. Right?
In a just world we all would be condemned.
But,
Jesus did not come into the world to condemn the world
but
to save the world.
I am grateful for that.
Her adultery (Ex 20:14) was criminal and she should have been put to death (Lev. 20:10–12).
Yes, we are called to live a righteous, sober and Godly life. We must make choices. And we must speak out when we witness evil or even the potential for evil, but, only God knows the heart. Therefore, we cannot judge the state of another's soul.
Appearances may be deceiving, both for good and ill.
