[QUOTE="Glass*Soul, post: 61079644, member: 111155"] Thanks. Interestingly, I came to the realization last week that my feeling bruised has led to my lashing out and bruising others, that I've been doing this for quite some time, and that it isn't acceptable. Oi antz offered a prayer in another topic of mine that touched thoughtfully on each point I had been belly-aching about and I got all snarky about it. I think I finally heard myself in a way I badly needed to hear myself. I realized I have to take steps to protect myself[I] so that I don't become a part of the problem.[/I] (Or a bigger part of the problem than I have already become. :( ) I realize that evangelizing or correcting unbelievers is something that some Christians may feel dutifully compelled to do, so I thought if I created a place where it [I]could[/I] be done, that I could visit when I'm not being too dangerously vulnerable over some other issue, maybe they would in turn respect my desire not to engage such posts in my other topics. It's a bit of a grand experiment. [/QUOTE]
