Crazd I am sincerely sorry he duped you (and others), and was even thinking about emailing you earlier today. Looking back at the thread however, I'm also uncomfortable with your statement above. On his thread, you said you were sorry you ever called him friend. THen went on to unfan, unfriend and call him @sshole. He called you separatist.
I don't think this is really you... This is the kind of thing cynics love. I can't really imagine how you feel, but I know it's bad, and this non-believer for one, feels really bad about that. I know something about events that play on your mind, hurt you deeply, and you feel somewhat powerless to shake them, because you can't make it "right" again. Hang in there, and continue to be the positive person we all know you are.
