Be not afraid

Alrighty now, if you guys keep this up, I might have to read all of the stuff below the photo on that first post. Don't make me do it.

Do it.

Yea, what she said!


I would like to stand up for what I believe as well and wonder why people had to make negative comments immediately about a spiritual post. We all know we get too many forwards but we really don't get too many posted on sowal. There was someone who needed to read it....no one else had to. There are plenty of things I choose not to read. No big deal!
PS Thanks Josh.

You are so sweet. Love you, Steele mama.

Josh, you asked me some specific quesions and i answered them for you. I have asked you questions and received no answers.

your thread has sparked quite the discussion, but it appears that that if you don't agree, you become dismissive:

Don't like it, don't read it. Just quit the constant whining

who's lashing now?

Maybe it is just that making such posts appears to be wrapping one?s self in Christ just in hopes, in this case, of selling some real estate. Maybe, just maybe, a good old fashion bedtime prayer might come off as a little more sincere to whichever god is perceived to be up there watching and listening?

?or maybe, it is just that, much like gifts, it is the thought behind it that really counts.

At least put some intelligent thought into your insults. Pissing people off in a public forum is not good for business. :idea:
I'm sorry that people's lives are filled with so much negativity that an inspirational thread sets them off. Apparently nobody in the real world wants to hear the complaining anymore so they come here to vent.
I don't bother anyone on here. I never speak negatively about anyone on this forum. I keep to myself until someone begins to bash my beliefs. You don't even need to read my threads, much less comment negatively.
I am done posting on this thread. I will not continue to go in circles with every yahoo who decides to put in their 2 cents.
God Bless

I use to complain, but I found out that no one ever listened.

 

[John R]

good luck to you josh.

Sorry Josh. God Bless you too.

Sorry, Josh, that came off a little stronger than I had intended. Being a believer in prayer and its power, I tend to get a little peeved when I get those little spam prayers clogging my email inbox and I took your post to be a similar spam posting.

I believe that the prayer emails tend to trivialize, more than inspire, prayer and spiritual thought. And, judging from the comments I hear go through the office, those chain prayers probably inspire more profanity than prayer.

My apologies.

This is NOT like me but I'm jumping into this dog fight. This whole thread has bothered me which I won't go into but this isn't the first inspirational thread that has been posted, so what's up? If you don't like it . . move to the next thread or start another. And no, I don't think we should post inspirational things in the Environmental, global, Issues thread as John R suggested. If what Josh posted was so offensive to some maybe an Inspirational thread would work.

Honestly, the whole thing sounds like John R has a problem with JoshMclean, don't know, just my opinion, and we all know what that's worth. ;-)

Peace. . .see why there are wars, it all starts in our own back yard.

Oh goodness, I know I am going to regret posting this after I push "Submit Reply"

:clap_1::clap_1::clap_1: to dbuck, in spite of the risks of stating your opinion!

(This is beginning to sound like the Sowal Revisited thread. :roll: Ridiculous.)
