Jesus on this one, because getting crucified was part of his plan. I mean, he clearly knew it was coming, understood it to be horrific, and continued on that path on purpose for the greater goal that he understood to be worth his sacrifice.

I didn't troll; People just take it too seriously. If one can't see a light-hearted comparison for what it is, then my apologies. But in all likelihood, the reason those liberals bailed was because they had a position they held righteous and dignified proven to be an outright fallacy and couldn't be adult enough to admit they were wrong.... Preferring to drop it and/or leave instead. Not my problem either way; but I'm not going about casting stones.

Not sure specifically what would make anyone uncomfortable. Either you want to exchange POV's about politics or you don't. I suppose it would be more comfortable for them at a liberal dominated board. I post at a few boards that are considered left leaning, and I don't want special treatment, I don't expect people to love me, I don't expect respect or even friendliness. I post to debate hot topics and discuss others. Then again, I have a fairly thick skin and don't get offended at a few bad words.

But I defy anyone to find me someone who came here with the intent of discussing things with like minded adults, who tried, who posted like an adult without the name calling, who made legitimate efforts - and WASN'T treated respectfully. The only people who get shit tossed on them are those who initially toss around a little themselves.
Bottom line - we are not Democratic Underground. We don't ban. We rarely moderate. We don't scare or chase people away. We'll respectfully debate with anyone who truly wants to.

Why do liberals call conservatives teabaggers? Because we're both a bunch of pricks maybe, I don't know, or care. They sure did come back round to rally behind the same talking points on how wrong and evil or 'penal' my position was; but when faced with solid argument and hard facts they ducked and ran instead of conceding they'd been wrong about something. Now why's that?
I don't need others to validate my position; I trust my judgement. But I've been wrong before, and others have helped me realize my errors. I value the time another takes to help me through that process; and likewise, I strive to return the favor. Others came and challenged my position, I accepted that challenge, and learned them something-- the only thing I got in return was dear John hearsay. It makes me think they've either nothing to give in return or are just unwilling to. (yourself excluded WS, you stuck around; and for that you earned my respect)

The reason it gets any traction is because all too often it's true. Those who are the most rabidly anti gay turn out to be gay themselves...and it happens all the time in the GOP. Personally I think anyone who's gay and republican is a self hater and not capable of speaking to the issue.
Homophobes are homophobes...it's a phobia, not rational etc. etc. etc. all too often it's over compensating for gay 'feelings'...fear, fear...be afraid...what the hell is the 'gay agenda' anyway?

Howard Roark - Another decent liberal. Made many good posts, has a great rep score and has many thanked posts already for the participation he has put forth.

Someone simply not posting hardly means we "chased them away". So, as I thought, this is really about ONE member? And if KS was a brand new member, then how did he/she know personal info about whether another member left or not? I call bluff on that one and think Keyser bailed all on his own and blamed it on us - when the fact of the matter is he came right out of the gate here like an asshole and got the treatment he deserved in return. No one was chased away and KS never said anyone else had left. But you are free to forward the message along to me, and if I'm wrong, I will come back to this thread and say so.

But your message is lacking facts - but I would appreciate it if you sent me this PM that was conveyed to you, to prove that you're not just crapping on the board and placing blame where it needs not be placed. Privacy will be protected, don't worry about that.

Someone simply not posting hardly means we "chased them away". So, as I thought, this is really about ONE member? And if KS was a brand new member, then how did he/she know personal info about whether another member left or not? I call bluff on that one and think Keyser bailed all on his own and blamed it on us - when the fact of the matter is he came right out of the gate here like an asshole and got the treatment he deserved in return. No one was chased away and KS never said anyone else had left. But you are free to forward the message along to me, and if I'm wrong, I will come back to this thread and say so. I won't mention names since it is private, but I'll admit I was wrong.
People here hardly all get along, even if the board does lean to the right. But let me ask you - do you think these people were not bright enough to see this before joining? If their reason for leaving was because the board was predominantly right, then what was the point of joining? And if that was their reason for leaving - then why did you say we chased them away?
You must admit that this board isn't liberal friendly. KS and some other member left, and it's been awhile since I've seen the two posters I invited, Peach and BD. I don't know who the other poster is who joined with KS, and I don't know KS from any other board.
Me,? I hate to see members leave. But I didn't try and persuade KS to stay, I just said, "we'll miss you".
I'll sure miss having some other member take the heat from the entire board once and awhile.

Did you not just see where I posted FACTS. The other liberals that joined - they have many thanked posts already and their rep scores are all moving up in a positive manner. So if the board isn't liberal friendly, then why do the facts show that these members were "thanked" quite a few times by conservative members and repped positive by conservative members? Do you think it might have something to do with the manner in which someone posts and less to do with their affiliation? It sure would explain why some liberals have zero issues here and others CLAIM they were chased off.
All the members you mention have accounts in good standing and are welcome to post whenever they feel like it. There is NO HISTORY AT ALL of any of them being abused, harassed or chased away. Those are the facts.

You have very few liberals who post on this forum. It is rare that there are two of us posting at the same time. I think it's helpful to consider why that's a FACT.
You've stated yourself that there is a period of time when old members give new members a rough time. Maybe you ought to take it easy on new members. Extend friendship.
I offered KS friendship before I knew his views were liberal. I've extended every one of my "friendships", it didn't come from old members to me.
Just something to consider....
You folks are all over my shit every second, but not one of you considers how you've stereotyped me as a "man hater". Nothing could be further from the truth. I'm a feminist. Some of you appear to have bought Rush Limbaugh ugliness.

One active member that I am aware of claimed to be leaving the board. This person just complained, nothing about being chased away. This person started the name calling in general towards the masses in their very 1st post, and was met with similar posts in return. This member mentioned no other active member I am aware of that is leaving or that was chased away. This member has an account still in good standing, is not banned and never was, and is capable of posting in every single thread on the board. This member was briefly removed from a discussion for continued trolling in that thread, but was almost immediately reinstated.
All of the other "liberals" also have accounts in good standing. They all have many thanked posts and they all have positive reputation scores. I can find no liberals that have joined in the past few months that have even been moderated in any fashion. In fact, going over the past 2-3 months worth of new registrations, no "liberal" members have even been in any type of "extended fighting" with the board or any individuals.
So we have a member that came looking for issues and is now disgruntled. We have a few new members who haven't returned in quite a bit now. Sorry, but that's not chasing anyone away by any stretch of the imagination, especially when they are welcome to post here this very minute if they like. If we really wanted to chase people away, we could REALLY give it to them, which we haven't and posting history proves - or we could simply ban them from threads continually or just ban them from the board.
Sorry, Wind, but I know you are telling what you believe to be the truth - but if you look at all the facts you will find it to just not be true.

Take it easy on new members? What if they come here and start shit from their very first post?
As for others, I think the continual thanked posts and positive reputation shows that quite a few here WERE taking it easy on them and being nice to them from the onset.
How about we look at this from a different angle, and save me a little more legwork. Outside of KS who started with his/her first post - can you point out members to me who came here and were mistreated from the onset? Who we weren't friendly too when they deserved it? I just honestly don't see new members coming here, as liberals, and posting like an adult, who are being mistreated or singled out for no reason. I would be HAPPY to retract that if you can link me to where this happened?
Wind, you are welcome to search and link me to where this happened. But let me clue you in on something - it simply hasn't happened.

Gee, let's look at this forum. 98% right wing clique.
Let's see, there are about 30 "conservative" posters, and even not all of them post, in any 24 hour period and we had about 4-5 liberals join back-to-back, libertine, Howard, keyser soze, differentDemocrat, not to mention Peach and BD, which would have given that POV significant exposure along with yourself plus some of the other posters on any particular issue. My feeling is that they relied on the talking point list pretty exclusively without trying to debate the specifics so didn't have any staying power. I could be wrong but they don't seem to have been here lately to disprove my feeling.

And I applaud you for that, but I notice that even you are MORE willing to extend that friendship towards liberals than you are conservatives.
Point being, while liberals may be the minority, they are more than welcome to post here, and if they post like adults and are friendly, they will get the same in return. If they post shitty, they will get the same in return.

Why do you fail to recognize that there is a difference between not agreeing with someone's viewpoint and not wanting them I to post here? Those are two different things.
Now I will say that in the past there were a couple of people here who thought they could dictate not just what people could post but who could post. As in they posted " you shut up, no wants to hear your opinion" and such things. Guess what, Jim and company chased THEM off. You're still here though, that right there should tell you something.

So what have we learned here?
The ban was legit. It was lifted early to show we don't have issues with liberals. Your spam box got in the way of being notified that we kindly lifted the ban.
Someone disagrees with you as a result of their religion and that apparently makes them a "nut job". Also, if anyone were to actually do a search, and follow the interaction between yourself and Abbey, would see that you liked her all along when she agreed with you, or stood up for you in past threads. But, as soon as she dared disagree with you, you give her a hard time. When she replies in kind, she is considered to be a nut job. This isn't my perception, as ANYONE can do a search and see this to be the case.

You've accused me of saying things that I never said, and you've done so COUNTLESS times. Each time, I have asked you to prove I said so, or retract your statements. You never do. But now someone says something YOU don't like, and you'll leave if they don't apologize? That's your choice - but I hope if things work out, that you'll remember this moment and stop accusing people of things they don't like. Getting along with people is a 2 way street.

Ooh, looks like I have a stalker. Sorry, Wind, I'm strictly hetero.
Anyway, since you devoted so much of your time to read my words of wisdom, I can only hope that you picked up some more Conservative, e.g., logical, viewpoints by absorption.
Wind Song brought up Abbey's name quite a few posts in a row when Abbey wasn't even posting. Then Abbey posted the above. On message boards, "stalking" is following someone around or using their name repeatedly, which was in fact done here. Abbey pointed as much out, then followed it with "I'm hetero" to be humorous.
Abbey can speak for herself, but if me, no way in hell I apologize or retract. If you brought my name up in consecutive posts and implying a problem with me, when I'm not even posting, you'll probably get a less than kind response from me as well.
I HARDLY see the above post being something someone should leave over. And Abbey will determine herself if it's deserving of an apology. But if one is going to leave if they don't get one, they should consider apologizing to all of the people, one by one, that THEY went out of their way to insult.

I take being accused of "stalking" someone as being accused of a serious crime. She made it a "sexual" accusation, when she commented that she is hetero, which compounded it.

Nice of you to drop it but the girls aren't. I've got Abbey and now Kath on my ass.
Odds are you are interpreting Abbey all wrong, it's not her style to go ape shit on anyone not harassing her.
I don't think you understand my posting at all, that doesn't bother me. There are times though that I think you DO understand and choose to be mean, which you have repeatedly called me for doing to you. I can be sarcastic, but I've not been hateful and not vulgar. You cannot say the same.

Dorothy, you could have cut this thread off at the legs with a bit of humor and not got everyone mad at you a long time ago if you would have just played it right.
Abbey says you're stalking her and no thanks she's hetero. You reply " only until i catch you then you'll turn lesbian" Everyone laughs, you have the upper hand, thread moves on.

Your dear friend, the kind and illustrious religious woman, Abbey, accused me of stalking her, and made a point to say she's het. As if I'd been chasing her sexually.

The so-called "fat buddha" is actually a Taoist wealth deity, and does not represent the buddha. http://sanaakosirickylee.wordpress.com/2012/02/08/an-unknown-but-powerful-taoist-wealth-deity-called-liu-hai/
The Buddha achieved enlightenment after many austerities, including long periods of fasting. He was skinny.

By what measure can we state that Jesus or Buddha is smarter than the other? The question doesn't make much sense.
When we talk about Jesus, we know we are talking about the Jesus of the Bible, of the NT. God and man.
Buddha means more than the historical man, Shayamuni, it is a state of being that is attainable in this very life.

Jesus is MUCH smarter than Buddha, but then again, so am I.

Jesus wins, hands down. So do I.

Dorothy, I go to therapy too. I go once monthly, and only for a half hour session, but it's still therapy. I'm on 4 different medications as a result: Pristiq, Trileptal, Seroquel and Xanax. It sucks. But you will NEVER see me use it as some sort of excuse. I'm still responsible for my own actions and words.

Here, read this synopsis of how you treated me, and maybe someday you will understand why the above statement is always going to be the truth for you, wherever you go:
I treated you fairly and was welcoming. I even took heat for defending you, from various people who already knew how you are.
We disagreed on topics like abortion, and you decided I was your enemy. At which point you went back into history and claimed to have read "all of my posts", to see how evil a Christian conservative woman I really am.
You pronounced it a real "eye-opener", and warned Jim that he should take a closer look at people like me.
I replied that it looks like I have a stalker. (who else would read over 11,000 of one person's posts, especially in one day? Not that I think for one second that you ever really did).
From there it went to hurling insults at me (like "slimy backstabber"- gotta love that one), and derogatory statements about my religion. How ugly for a Buddhist, btw.
Now I have officially spent way more time on you than you deserve.

I never thought of you as an enemy. I don't even think that of you now. I said that my eyes were opened the day I was banned because I read HOW right wing your posts are and how much criticism you had for me personally.
You accused me of stalking you and reminded me that you are het, as if I were sexually stalking you. You are unwilling to apologize for that.
