Heather in Neverland Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I figured out what forum it was:glare:. I left that forum about 3 weeks after I joined. I just couldn't deal with all the haterade those ladies were drinking. Bless their hearts;). I must be the only person who thought this board is the only one out there. :tongue_smilie: .

nukeswife Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I know the other forum, and am a pretty active member there, although I try to stay away from the hot threads but sometimes it's just so hard. I did give them a piece of my mind. The hard part for me is that many of them like to remind people that they are loving Christians. I just don't see the love much unless it's a thread with like minded folks. :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I figured out what forum it was:glare:. I left that forum about 3 weeks after I joined. I just couldn't deal with all the haterade those ladies were drinking. Bless their hearts;). Ha! I read there for a while before finding the WTM forums. That site isn't very helpful. That sort of person is the reason I hesitate when saying I homeschool. I also think a lot of people need to recognize that they act like the Pharisees. I don't think they will recognize it though. I won't bless their hearts. I'll hope they recognize how they push people away from Jesus and that they see the harm they do in his name. I thought your original thread was very nice, Audrey. I think you were being very respectful of your friend. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cajunrose Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Not that you need any more input but I'll give it anyway. I'm atheist..through and through. I have been known to ask for "Positive thoughts, prayers, whatever you have to give" for loved ones and myself included. My thought is that while I don't really believe that there is anything to pray to, I do believe that the act of prayer is one that has a person thinking and sending positive energy about the person in need...and that is enough for me. You did nothing wrong by asking for prayers. That is what your friend wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8circles Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 You were trashed on another forum for asking for prayers for a friend? That's not right. I am glad to hear the prayers are/were helping your friend. I can't think of a more horrible thing to do to another human being. D*** * to THOSE people* This is a diverse board of people with different areas of expertise. Audrey simply saw this need outside of her area of expertise and asked for help for a hurting friend. Many people on this board do that. Audrey, I'm sorry. :iagree::iagree::iagree: I'm so sorry you were treated this way. More prayers for your friend. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree with Christianity (well, I don't agree with organized religion; Jesus is fine by me :D), but I never understood why so many people (those who are not Christian, typically atheist) claim to be so open-minded when the reality is they are just as bad as those they complain about all the time. Anyhow, what you did showed a lot of respect for those with beliefs other than your own, and obviously everyone here has a lot of respect for that. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatherwith4 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Oh, Audrey, I am so sorry for what was said about you on the other forums. I learned a long time ago to stay far, far away from there... I'm honored to pray for your friend, and I'm glad you asked us to. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakia Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I'm sorry that happened, Audrey. FWIW, I think you're an amazing person and always have. Your friend is blessed to have you. I'll pray for her healing. :grouphug::grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnitWit Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Audrey, I admire you very much. I often think that you are probably the truest friend any of your friends know. I wish I knew you in real life. Even before reading your second post here, I was thinking...knowing Audrey, this was not even about getting sympathy. :) You have shown yourself true by setting aside yourself to honor the beliefs of your friend in her time of need.

TammyinTN Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 What the heck? How does anyone have the time for that sort of crap? Audrey, I saw your request and prayed. I was happy to. Exactly! :iagree: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mothergooseof4 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Audrey, I am sorry you received negative reactions to your request. I personally don't understand your beliefs. But, I do believe that I am to at least TRY to be an example of Christ to all. If someone asks for prayer, then I will pray. And, I think it is awesome that you asked when it goes against your own faith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinsfamily Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Eek. That's just weird that anyone would think ill of you for asking for prayers for a friend. Wild. Thanks for blessing your friend, Audrey. :iagree: I'm sorry that you faced that type of response for an honest and thoughtful request. I am humbled by your commitment to your friend and will offer up my prayers for Jackie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swellmomma Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) Curiosity got the better of me and with the help of a friend I went and read the thread. I don't want to turn this into a gossipy thread, but giving them what for would just go over quite a few of their heads. Swiiiiiish! That's what I have now seen. I was connected to it, but reading the level of ignorance there. So not worth the time it would take to respond. Too small minded to ever change. We will let God deal with them on the day of judgement for failing to live his word properly. They are chosing to pick and chose which verses are to be abided. Though it does make me wonder what the username of the op over there is over here, because I do not want to associate with a wolf in sheep's clothing. That is someone I want on my ignore list.

I'm tough that way. :) A bunch of Christians who admit they know little about witches aren't a useful source of information. Be brave, Girlie.

AngieC Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I'm still baffled by the person who replied to the suggestion that she do a Google search of the Wiccan religion that there were certain words/subjects that she didn't want in her computer and that was one of them.
