Evolution/Creation 2 (aka Religion III)

I always do.

Well look. I don't know who you are, but spreading rumors about someone on the internet is a very big faux pas. I certainly do not appreciate it. Your details about Stealthy were incorrect for starters, which showed me you do not know him as you claimed.

I asked for his number to ascertain whether you were for real or not. Yet you refused.

I asked for your name so, while I was on the phone to Mike, we could work out who you are. He does not know "The Dark". He never suggested I stole his phone. I was with him when he lost it!

What good is an English phone to me outside England? I have an English phone that I bought that is now a paperweight. Your suggesting of impropriety on my behalf is a very low stab. Mike and I are great mates. How dare you. Mike suggested perhaps you put "2 and 2 together and made 5". To bring up an accusation like this on this board is appalling.

This is internet freak material. I will be forwarding this page to Ziroc and asking you be banned.

Whatever.......work on sonny, like my life will be touched or dented in any way shape or form. Oh btw, couldn't you just turn the other cheek, is it an eye for an eye, is it live and let live.....or is it just hypocrisy morning noon and night?......work on sonny....work on.

Originally posted by Sir Michael: From Yorick, quote: And just what are you doing Michael. I left my country and worked in Singapore to help. Now I'm in America. Put your money where YOUR mouth instead of trying to poke holes in what I have or haven't done. I have done what I have done and certainly don't have to answer to a trainee teacher in Las Vegas about it.

I'm not trying to poke holes in anything, Yorick...and I certainly didn't mean to put you on the defensive like that. Once again, you miss my point, and take a defensive, upset posture. I merely meant to point out that there is always a need to help people, wherever you are, and I was curious as to what you are doing now, or have done, and to point out that "sending money" is often the easy way out for people to feel like they are doing something, when, in fact, nothing is being accomplished. And I told you what I am doing...it's not a real lot, but lately I have been spending all my time working and going to school. When I am in service as a teacher, besides helping my students, I will have more time to work in the community, as well.

Dude, for a person that preaches love, and tolerance and seeing the good things in life, you seem to have a very negative, defensive and upset attitude. Dramnek_ulk brought this up, but could it be that you are really a very insecure person? Arrogance is also a sign of insecurity. And isn't pride one of the seven deadly sins? Shouldn't you be more humble in keeping with the tenets of your faith?

Also, I never meant to imply that you had to answer to me, but I would appreciate you remembering that I am not merely a "teacher trainee." I also have a Bachelor's degree in chemistry and have been working with the US Environmental Protection Agency helping to protect the environment for the last 12 years. Not to mention that I am probably your elder, and while I am not as traveled as you, I do have a lot of life experience you will never have.[/QUOTE]Michael for Pete's sake. Being aware of the positives is not being numb or blind to the negatives. Happiness is a choice not blindness.

No I'm not upset. I'm writing. I write strongly. I express as clearly as possible. I object to things Dramnek in particular writes because they are qwuite offensive, not necessarily just to me, but to many dear friends.

As far as teaching goes, I've been teaching tertiary level off and on for the last seven years. I can say the exact same thing to you about having life experience you will never have. Where would that get us. The point is you're out of line calling into question my dedication to what I do. I don't have to answer to you. That's all I'm saying.

So how old are you anyway?

What has that got to do with anything? I called your bluff. You're a rumormonger and a scaremonger.

How is this hypocritical again? Calling my friend to make sure there's no problem?

You're not being real "Dark" hiding behind anonymity. Anyone here can see my face if they want to. Hear my voice. Know my name. Many have met me in person. There is a transparency.

You are a hiding coward.

Hide in your anonyminity then Dark. This board has been a bastion of friendship and connection on the net. One person like you will not destroy that.

So, did you give Stealthy his phone back?

[AliCat]

Just so someone else is posting here... I must say, Dark, petty, petty, petty. Go get your jollies in the bathroom, please.

I'm butting outta this thread now, just wanted to let you know Hugh that *WE* see through the hypocrisy.

What Exactly do you find offensive about my posts? They are my opinion and beliefs, nothing more. Many of the things that you say I find quite offensive, but I don’t care about it in the end.
Could it be that you are insecure somehow about your beliefs, and the issues that my posts have raised are upsetting to you?

No.
