I usually solve these problems by putting people who are obnoxious to me on ignore. They can then troll me all they want, but I never have to see them doing it, so it ends up working out for us all. :)

It’s all good. Deleting my account as soon as I let some of the good folks I’ve met know I’m leaving. This is a very unChristian place so good luck.

I thought I saw in the forum rules that questions were only allowed on Tuesdays. Or maybe they weren't allowed on Tuesdays? You didn't get called an atheist on a Tuesday did you? Well you know sticks and stones and all that!
I was thinking that questions, per forum rules, were allowed on Wednesdays. Maybe it's now on Tuesdays. I don't care much for rules anyways.

Poor behaviour exhibits poor teaching as a child!

Rudeness comes from a persons heart to always find fault,to snip and use sarcasm at another,shows lack of confidience in yourself.
Covers up your real self at times when we don't like to face it.

However NOT all that are rude, are really rude people but trying to cover up a hurt,a sin,,a lack of, ect.

This is NOT a personality flaw but a behaviour and only themselves can correct it. Instead they want others to feel lower than they do...hence rudness!

If I have acted rude said things that hurt or offended any, please forgive me. I pray for you healing of and my forgiveness of.

Maybe they did a typo and they were meaning you were a Theist not an atheist.

?!

When someone ask a question like 'Are you there God? Its me, Margaret'

Its not like Margaret is questioning God's existence. She's just checking if He's available. He's very busy you know. Looking after the entire universe and all.
Maybe Margaret is a theist.

Very few people are truly hate-filled on here. But there are some. Runningman, that Lynx character. Some others. If they are dealing with some personal problem, they’re doing it incorrectly. I haven’t started a single fight on here and really don’t understand what I did to garner such detestable behavior.

I don’t recall anything you’ve done wrong. Most of my interactions have been positive. But a few bad apples right?

Maybe there’s another Christian forum out there. I’ll use a pseudonym next time.

Be well and God bless.

I understand and I'm sorry you are not going to stay with us.

I am on several forums not just Christian ones and this behaviour is everywhere bc the LOVE of many has waxed cold.

Remember ALL that say they are the -LORD'S are not..

Peace and love

I'm rude and hateful when I respond negatively to an unprovoked ad hominem against people who have heard God speak. Got it, you're the victim here and everyone else is an aggressor. :rolleyes:

I didn't expect to stumble upon you slandering me and @Lynx , but here we are. Yet you talk about all of the alleged unChristian people here? smh. You're just stirring up strife by your inability to let things go and move on. No one really wants to deal with drama for days.

I don't even know you bro or what you have against people who have heard God speak. That sounds atheistic to me. My apologies if I have offended you, I can be a man and just tell you I am sorry if I have hurt you, but seriously it's all water under the bridge to me. Good luck man! I hope we can be brothers and friends in heaven.

Never mind the Margaret. That was my mistake.
In regards to my statement, "What did I ever do?" I was referring to Tourist's humor. I said, "They look rude," he said, "That's rudimentary." I meant, "What did I ever do to have to endure this type of humor?" We were joking around.

Dude, you won. I’m leaving soon. Take the W and be proud! Also feel free to continue misrepresenting (lying about) what I said. You’re quite skilled at that.

Okay Kris, clearly there was a misunderstanding and miscommunication somewhere considering neither of us want to actually create problems. I don't feel like I did anything wrong, but I apologized to you anyway because I see you're upset and that involved me. I can see how we both have faults here. The last thing I want is to be on bad terms with anyone, even someone I don't know.

I think on message boards, where we are just talking in text, it can be so easy to misunderstand each other. I vote let's push the reset button and forget about this. I hope you feel the same. Take care.

It was an excellent point :) OP did not say all people were rude, but some chose to read it that way. The fault is theirs.
The question neither infers nor implies all.
Thats true in a possible meaning if we ignore the grammatical phonological dial in a misformed statement. That use of language always leaves room for misunderstanding. So whilst that does make for a separation between those who are rude and those that are not rude - simply adding the word all would have been far more revealing for those who participated in this thread and understood the claim properly.

It is NOT true, however (your two statements), when a thread is created to ask a question that was already predicated on a discontent and thus formed the question itself. @#135 in this thread sets that down by the authors own hand.

I am not saying this to be critical sister - not of yourself or the thread author - I am sorry to see that @KrisWampler is leaving. Yet I believe that he would be better remaining if he can because we all have faults and some are spectacular in their proportions - yet we are all born again and so we need one another - even when we say sometime difficult things.
