Thread Name: BS: GUTLESS' IDIOT GUEST' CHAIN UPDATE
Subject: RE: BS: GUTLESS' IDIOT GUEST' CHAIN UPDATE
Rich...(and all).....This isn't about any real guests. This is a member flaming another without the courage to use their name........Guest/Member.

In this case, we have gone round a lot about "healing threads," religion, "prayer chains" and all of that and reached a sort of truce. I'm an agnostic and in all truth, I believe that if it works for you, fine......Don't "inflict" yours on me and I'll do the same. WYSIWYG/Praise/Susan has maintained a lower profile and simply put up a thread for those (and there are quite a few) who might wish to participate in her prayer chain. Not a big deal and definitely not an "in your face" thing.

At this point, a member of ours who lacks the guts to use their own name, posted several threads ... "Curse Update" and "Pornography Update"... modeled on her text. If you have a problem, at least use your name......they didn't and they never do. These are members, not really guests at all. I'm wearing out on this crap and we've sorted out the worst of the problems to most people's satisfaction. Our Member/Guest is just stirring the pot and so I started this one. I have a far bigger problem with anonymous assholes than I do with anyone's religion and how they practice it. I'm ready in this case to have an "outting" of this member, but the call belongs to Max and I would never push it. Its not about censorship or about guests or about religion. What it is about is the lack of courage and courage of conviction to use your own name........and about causing and continuing dissention on a basically dead issue.

Spaw (and let's not even try to play the "Spaw is an alias thing;" most of my life is on these threads)
