Really feel sorry for you, Al. Can only hope you won't encounter such things again.

Evil Al,
That really is terrible! I hope you can find some comfort in knowing that the best people have the hardest lives. ;)
Don't hate...it only feeds the negativity that we strive to keep at bay.

Not to be mean or anything but you have to expect this when out in the streets preaching. Maybe not the beating up part but at least ridicule and being told to shut up and go away.
I know I have told some people who have tried preaching to me before to go shove it up their arse because frankly if I wanted to find out more about Christianity I would go find it out myself, I dont want a bible basher interrupting my daily life when I have no intrest in what he/she has to say.
Not saying its a good thing you got beaten up for it, but you have to expect it to a certain extent when you are preaching to a lot of people who dont want to hear it.

Thanks for your concern guy's. I try not to hate the people that sin against me, I know that some of them can't help it, I attually feel sorry for them. A large number of people around here have serious drug problems and frankly Peterhead as a whole doesn't do enough to help those people. They seem to think if the police arrest them all and throw them in jail they'll learn their lesson. It would be so if they stopped taking drugs when they're locked up, but its sad to say some even come out worce!
Azure, I know what you're saying man. Some streat preachers come with the wrath of God and damn the people who don't look like they're listening. But i don't really see the point in that. Is someone really going to listen when they're shouting "SINNER!"? I tend not to use a microphone as well. We have banners up when we're preaching so people can come and listen if they want to. The Bible warned me this might happen, so it didn't come as a shock. But anyways I'll stop here before this turns into a relgion discussion, I don't want Saz to shout again...
God Bless you too sister.

<font color="lightblue">I disagree with you to a point on the guns issue. You should only carry a gun on you if you are confident with it. If you`re not, you become a danger to yourself and anyone standing around. If you are, you can become an all too necesary safety precaution. So only ever carry a weapon which you are confidant you can use properly.
SM: Like everyone else has said, don`t go out alone; especially not if you`re worried about it. </font>

its really shocking huh.. 2 years ago i was swimming an jumping off this bridge into the water that night i guy died there and ive neve been back but yeah more friends at all times possible the merrier dude

Depends on which country you live. You need extensice licenses to carry guns in the UK, for example.

If that's directed towards Azure then he's male [img]tongue.gif[/img]

When your bro,you,and your neighbor go stargazing carry something to protect yourselves with.(big stick,baseball bat,golf club,ect)Look behind you and around you at times.When you are inside keep doors and windows locked.When you are alone be careful and keep the doors locked.Do somehting that keeps your mind off of creepy things.Hope this helps.
