Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» I respect your beliefs. IF AND ONLY IF they agree with mine. Otherwise you can go to he**! SOUND FAMILIAR? Wonder WHY?
The format of your question presents a hypocritical downward spiral. From “I accept you” to “I hope you burn forever”.
Hell is the pinnacle of intolerance, is it not? Invoking hell is an exercise born of faith; faith is a brand of selective ignorance; and ignorance breeds suffering, hypocrisy and intolerance.
Yes, it is all too familiar; and no, I don’t wonder.

Is He** exclusive to religion Don? Only the "faithful" believe there is one? For those who are not religious He** and Heaven are equally fantasy? I actually have never believed in the "He** fire and dam*ation view of life. "Good" folks end up in a better place than evil folks. That seems just and fair to me. But where that less better place is and what it's like? I've thought of it as being oblivion...a void, vacuum, nothingness. Isolation. But I digress. I confess I have respected the views of others I did not share because we are all wired differently BUT and EXCEPT that for the first time in my life I do not and cannot accept donjohn or anything/anyone that accepts him. It is beyond my grasp and ability to make sense of and so I simply reject him and them as being among the mysteries in life that are inexplicable and beyond my ken. It's gotten worse. I can't even talk to those folks anymore. Perhaps because I'm old and so tired of it and them that I've given up trying to understand. What I see is pure evil, no redeeming value. If there is more and better somewhere in there I have not been able to find it. So I have failed. Thank you for your reply and Happy Monday to thee DonB! :)

I don't wonder about anything I already have figured out. It's all too familiar around here. If this is an attempt to apologize, I accept as any tolerant individual would.
It seems to be affecting/afflicting more and more people. Or perhaps it was always there and I just never paid much attention to it. Depressing though. SIGH. Thank you for your reply ru and Happy Monday! :)
