What would it take for people to get along. Thank God that even atheist believe that it is NOT okay to kill or murder etc.

Really I just scratch my head. On Hp, of course Mark and Amanda are just saying whatever, voicing their opinions etc. as we all want to and I wouldn't be afraid of them or think bad of them if I met them out of the streets.

I have talked to Mark away from HP and Misha, and Jenny and Mohit and LG and Mike and Jeromeo (who hasn't been here for a while) and several others and each one is dynamically different.

Mark sides with the notion that the Bible was supposed to make you a stronger better person on your own without God being around. I actually agree, actually we agree on most things and we just chat for the sake of chat (so I think) and no hard feelings.

Misha, I love Misha, did you know that Misha is a saint? He helped me for some time when I was having a very hard time and I am grateful to him for everything he has ever done and all the time he took just to talk to me whenever I needed to talk.

And Lady G. Sometimes I am like whaaa is she saying now. lol. But still I love her, she is sweet and we talk all the time and she helps me too. She gives me practical advise and comfort when I need it and she doesn't hold a grudge off hp.

And of course Jenny! who doesn't just love Jenny. I would think you were strange to not love her. lol.

And Mike, he has a good heart, he is open minded no matter what you guys think about him. He continuously makes effort to understand things spiritually or otherwise and I respect that and I respect his Catholic beliefs and really didn't understand Catholicism until I started to listen to him and talk to him and let him explain.

Jeromeo, Is the local Hp, JW and a lot of people cannot stand JW's and I have heard even Christians say they are the devil and stay away from them, yet from talking to him often he actually shows so much restraint and respect for my opinions and thoughts and I do for him as well because we live under the understanding that it is not about the religion but it is about love and respect and trying to be better people.

And EngM. He has got to be the nicest and most open minded Muslim I have ever had the pleasure of speaking with. He ask questions, he never fights, if he hears something interesting he looks into it yet he will not say he doesn't believe in God either.

So here is a group of diverse people with different beliefs and thoughts and opinions that I just love regardless even when they get pissy with me. lol because each one of them is a good person and each one will take their time to humor or talk to me if I need it... even Mark.

So I can't understand why there isn't a compromise. We know that we are all perfectly capable of getting along and we all know that not every death was on behalf of religion or the lack thereof. Each can plainly see that with or without a belief, we all act the same when it comes to our passions... except for Misha because he just likes to be happy and flirt with the girls and stay on a neutral ground unless of course something is just really funny and he says something sarcastic, but I do to, so...

So what's the deal? Why not at least humor each others beliefs instead of being mean to each other? I aint perfect of course and I have got a mouth on me every now and again too.

I guess what I am saying is that the only thing that changed about me in the way I talk on the religion forum isn't so much that I have changed but because I decided that I would stand up for Christians (no matter how off the wall some can get at times) because at some point I saw that it was a free for all against them and anything was allowed, degradations, humiliations etc. and even though they know this is inevitable I couldn't with good conscious just look the other way.

I have laughed along side most of you at some Christians but that was before I realized the impact that hp was having on them and the amount of "clicks" that developed and how even when they are speaking to themselves... Mark LOL, they just want to do that and if someone says okay I will have a listen, how sad it became to see that more and more people were very uninterested in what they feel or believe but more and more interested in making fun of them regardless.

There has to be a way for us to get along. Maybe we could call a truce or something. I dunno. But you cannot expect a believer to not talk about their beliefs or religion on a religion forum and you cannot expect non believers to not address why they do not believe, however maybe we could work on the things that we have in common and find a compromise so that we are speaking for the causes we find good together.

That doesn't mean because you believe God is good that that is something we have convince someone else about, but if we all believe that killing is bad and war is bad and letting people starve is bad etc. maybe we could focus on that and just accept each others views or inspiration.

-sorry so long.

  Weird. I offered you a truce some time ago. - You stop telling me you have all the answers and your god tells you them into your head. I stop laughing at you.
  
  As I recall, that was not acceptable and you argued that you should be able to knock on doors to push your irrational beliefs - because it is for my own good. Hmmmm. Not seeing any compromise there.
  
  How about you stop pushing your beliefs and I stop laughing at them? Sound good as a compromise?

  WHAT is your problem RK. This is all Sandra said about Jenny.
  
  I don't agree with some of the things Jenny says myself but it is not too hard to tell that she if very intelligent and well read. I respect her and that is exactly why Sandra started this thread, to try to bring some respect to these forums.
  
  RK I didn't notice your name in Sandra's OP, maybe that is the problem? Or maybe your problem is with a reply Jenny gave to one of your posts ions ago? Whatever the case, you need to grow broader shoulders to post in these forums my young friend.

She made an INTERNATIONAL PUBLIC FORUM about other hubbers. She set herself up, but most importantly she set up those other HUBBERS- messing with their business. That's not cool.

Nice post, Sandra

It is one of the limitations of the internet, that makes it very difficult to express an opinion, without the cues of body language or facial expressions.

I am pretty sure that if everybody was sitting at a table drinking coffee, that some enlightening conversations would develop.

Not sure if a truce is ever going to happen on HP, but that does not mean that you should not try!

Must agree with you - I like everybody on your list - there are many good people there

Screw offering a truce and not having someone take it, Mark.

You've always been willing to work together with those who are willing to work together, right?

So put some pride away, just for today, and say "thanks sandra, that was a great idea!"

Or not, your choice. I mean, you do have some valid points.

I for one, am down with a truce, though, who ever wants to proclaim it, 'cause my name won't live through out time.

Sandra, your opening statement.

"Thank God that even atheist believe that it is NOT okay to kill or murder etc."

Are you implying that to be an atheist is some sort of handicap when considering morals?

No person has ever offered a sensible answer to any of the hard questions Mark has asked, and quotes from the bible just don't carry any weight with some of us, as we read it and came to different conclusions to you. I for one am not about to believe in any invisible entity either.

  Leta Sposted 14 years agoin reply to this
  OH, I believe GM (right?), or lxxy, that YOU are not looking for a fight.
  
  The problem here is not about middle ground, either--that's another logical fallacy which draws its power from the fact that a moderate or middle position is often the correct one. For example, a moderate amount of exercise is better than too much exercise or too little exercise. However, this is not simply because it lies in the middle ground between two extremes. It is because too much exercise is harmful and too little exercise is all but useless. The basic idea is that moderation or middle ground is correct because the extremes are typically "too much" and "not enough" and the middle position is "enough."
  
  But this isn't true, either, as, uncritically assuming that the middle position must be correct because it is the middle position is sometimes poor reasoning...I.e, there do exist some Christians who believe atheists can have universal standards of ethics. So that this is not a case for any middle ground to be reached. As some (many) people stay out of the religion forums because of the slightly 2-dimensional scope of the arguments here. Many outside of it just >might< be seeing in 3D, so to speak.

  lxxyposted 14 years agoin reply to this
  Your prove a lot of points. But your first mistake is assuming I take a middle ground. I take no ground. I am, using you. You are..using me, isn't this how communication is supposed to work?
  
  I'm asking innocent questions, prodding in an innocent way. Or at the very least, so unassuming silly, you'd have a lot to say about my sanity, much less my assumptions.
  
  I've no assumptions, Lita. I've questions, and I think I may have the answer, but so does everyone else who feels like contributing to any line of conversation such as this.
  
  But I'm not taking a middle ground. I am not a moderate, and I've a lot of crazy whacked out views, and I share them in a non-threatening manner, or in a way I hope no one views as a "sane" one.
  
  The problem is, as you're so quick to point out, a person of middle ground is uncritical. I am critical. I'm just not critical of any one person, or their family, circumstance, whatever. I don't care who it is you are, what you look like, or where you come from. I'm critical of society, of actions in general.
  
  So, maybe I'm just that "3D" you mention. Probably not, I suppose, because maybe I can't convince anyone of these very words.
  
  But just know, I'm not here to propagate anything less than honest intention. Apathy is "ehh, well, I won't make a comment.."
  
  I do comment, because I do critique, I just don't bother causing strife..or I try not to, anyway, because again, it's just static.

Shadesbreathposted 14 years ago
It always seems to come down to the fact that the "believers" can't just keep their beliefs to themselves. They have to start "sharing" and, well, the rest is what happens. They are so full of what they "know" and "understand" that they open themselves up to opposition, which then, apparently, requires compromise. My thought is that if religions kept to themselves, there would be no need of compromise on that particular ground.

(I really hope nobody tries to counter this in the dumb way that a surface reading will invite. Not sure I'll be able to hold back.)

  Mark Knowlesposted 14 years agoin reply to this
  But the "middle ground" you want is to be able to keep on sharing your beliefs - but not have any one disagree with them.
  
  I notice a lot of that from believers lately.
  
  "Why can't you leave us alone to spread the love of god?"
  
  "It doesn't matter how many people get annoyed when god botherers knock on their door. It is for their own good."
  
  "OK - evolution does happen, but why can't we have started with perfect humans like it says in the bible?"
  
  "Here is some scientific evidence that a priest made up which proves the big bang did not start everything."
  
  "Why can't we just have a compromise and agree that there are just different opinions here, and although we believers are right, maybe it would be the loving thing to do if you stopped telling us we are wrong, because that is just hateful and negative?"
  
  What you do not seem to get is that the very second you say "This is god's word and I know it is true," you remove all room for a compromise.
  
  I agree we both agree of some key issues. The difference is - I came to the conclusion that it is wrong to murder people all on my own. You came to the decision because it says so in your book from god. And there is a lot of stuff in that book that I do not agree with.

I've just finished reading Sandra newest hub and saw a few comments were posted here. I've never surfed over to forum's mainly because of lack of time or care. Though I am glad I did today. I am of the opinion that there will never be a compromise on the grounds of fanaticism on both sides. I am a fight starter by my own nature. I start fights and trash religion because of my first 25 years of life were hell because of religion. I personally enjoy making people uncomfortable with my views. Blasphemy is a wonderful way of finding out who the true believers are. I don't enjoy making people that don't bother me with their beliefs and respect the true Christian's that lead by example and not shout it from the roof tops. But yes, when you start "praying for me" and trying to tell me that my years of training in geophysics as well as working with bones of things much older than most can imagine are false. I get hostile and enjoy throwing your religious quotes right back at you. Religion for me was the most unhappiest time of my life. From years at catholic school, being in choirs, coaching E.V. free's, leading FCA, and all the other churches and religion's I went towards turned to pure hell. To me, religion and the slavery it instills is the true evil. So to make this incredibly long story short, I will compromise but never back down because the religious fanatics won't either. And to me that is the problem for us all. No respect from either side.

  First thing I saw was RK! That's what I'm talking about. You're so careless with other people's business. You are so careless with your ideology. The second thing I saw was hate! But you know, it doesn't matter, because you have no right to make assumptions and accusations towards IE. If you'd actually get past YOUR pride, you just might of seen that she was TRYING TO BE HELPFUL! Don't worry, Sandra- the next time, I'll certainly blow any thing you write; off!

  The only one playing superior being here is you RK people have the right to believe whatever they want to and that includes you but if you really want to treat people with a lack of respect on accounts of something that does not agree with you also then fine, you made that decision not me.
  
  I like people regardless of what they believe but when you start telling people to shut up and to not talk about what they believe because it is better for you then I will say no thank you!
  
  What is this about Twitter?

Anger is such a useless emotion...it clouds the waters of trepidation, making too many people afraid to speak up. Alright, back to being the Professor of Philosophy 101.

Perhaps we can use this thread here to open a new line of discussion about the "universal truths" that Mark has pointed out about....and put this "compromise" into actions, because words are worth their weight in gravity on the moon. ;D

Give me a break Sandra. You don't have to say a damn thing. I think you said it all right here and I quote, And of course Jenny! who doesn't just love Jenny. I would think you were strange to not love her. lol. big_smile

What if I didn't like Jenny. You calling me strange because I have a different opinion than you? You think calling people strange or making them feel unworthy is okay? Ask Badcompany about that.

And let us talk about Jenny, is fair that she be put into the middle of a situation like this, where someone is open to really bash and discredit her, because they don't agree with you!!! My, my, my have you been fishing in shallow water too much, or shall I take this a little deeper? THAT IS WHY IT IS OFFENSIVE!

Oh Jenny, whoever you are- I'm sorry YOU have been thrown into this mix, by someone less wise. I feel bad for you. I don't know who you are. But there is alot of shallow people out there. I am not a loner. I wouldn't appreciate somebody using my name in this manner, and potentially setting me up to take a fall. She is messing with YOUR business ALL in order to promote her own business, and that's just not cool. That's not cool at all. Same goes for Lady G, Misha, Mark and whoever else Sandra decided to comment about in a PUBLIC forum.

Sandra that's low.

  So you hate Jenny, okay. You think I am strange, look at what you just wrote and tell me who is being low? I love people that you don't love and I am low.

  And another thing, I don't even know who Jenny is! Try reading all the forum posts written. I don't hate Jenny at all. And see how you just tossed her to the wind again, and mess with her life? If you can't see how wrong that is, and just quit before it's too late, then. I feel sorry for this Jenny character. I feel bad for Misha, Lady G. Mark and whoever else you decided to open a PUBLIC FORUM POST about.

I don't know Sandra. I've always admired you on hp. You're truly a very smart woman, but a truce. I don't know - it looks too much like a sell out to me. But hey, what do I know, right.

To the person beginning this tread........What are you talking about?? It seems more like ranting and purposeless. Move on and accept everyone has their own opinion. Enjoy the interaction..
