for all people here,regulars or lurkers, remember that this forum is for sharing the love of faith and religion, and not the hate people find in fanaticism.this forum is an open grounds to discuss opinions and expand our minds and understanding and not narrowing it to "single truths" as yet ,no matter how strongly you believe otherwise, to have been proven that a single path is the correct or better one. we should all respect each other and not force hate upon others as what religion that fosters hate can truly lead to salvation or the betterment of humanity. to all lurking users, although this forum might seem agressive and at times outright offensive or racist it gives you an opportunity to spread love and respect here to remind the rest of us why this forum has been opened. all are diverse in their beliefs and not in the worth of those beliefs...arent all equal before god? love&light to all IP: Logged |

Thank you doommlord So many people do not post any longer here and I suspect many more want to but see LL as a supporter of Christian Radicals. I miss the conversations and discussions and just plain sharing concerning beliefs throughout the world and back into recorded history and before. People of little known religions like Parsi for example do not post now a days. All the death and hellfires and damnation end of the world from a rabid Christian point of view posted thread after thread for years, same negative messages over and over, becoming progressively more hateful; has become depressing and is hateful towards most people of the world. I wonder what all the non Christians who are members think when they see all the rabid Christian hate spam here? If I were a Muslim or any religion other than rabid fundie Christian or messianic Jew... I would not post at LL where hate for Muslims etc; is clearly seen over and over in the preachings of Ami. And Ami's banner makes people think LL may be a Christian site because it matches LL's colors. Ami preaches hatred for anyone who does not believe as she does. Her site has those hate messages posted on it too. If a KKK person wanted a banner here promoting psychic readings or any respectable service.....but elsewhere on their site was preaching their hate messages.... well think about it....... hate is hate and should LL be linked to a site with hate messages in different areas of that site? Just voicing my opinion and concerns because it looks bad in my pov.

True that, when i joined i had just seen the astrology, numerology and lexigram boards.....had i seen half of what someone posts on the other forums i wouldn't have joined, as at one point i myself was wondering if this was secretly KKK affiliated or something..... I know people from all kinds of faiths and i'd never lead them to this website where you'd think there'll be such great vibes and great people (and there is on the astrology and such forums) but elsewhere.....good grief, i mean haters are gonna hate, but what's the point? there is a lot of that in the 'offline' world already, it's cooler to check the civil way people interact when they want some readings and take that to the rest of the forums. now back to other things lol IP: Logged |

Plenty of good points here, Lexx. I didn't notice this about the banner, but you're right. If I were new I might very well draw the wrong conclusion. fwiw, concerning theological doctrine and church history, Lexx and I don't agree on much. We've had more than a few fiery debates here on LL. But we've learned to do so reasonably and impersonally. I'm not damning her to the darkest pits of hell, and I've never felt she was damning me. I've never seen her preach violence or exclusivism or tout religious fanaticism. That's crossing the line imo. IP: Logged |

Lexx: I heard you about the silence --------------------------------------- I was never unregistered like I asked. After 8 years one would think the site owner would respect that request. Since he has not, and the crickets I hear chirping from Randall~ and- the newest argument stemming from Ami Anne; one might consider two things: - That Randall agrees with most of what AA posts.
And - she has $donated$ funds for the site management.
It would appear that those who support the site with money are given an incredible amount support. Support in the form of lack of adherence regarding the site rules. AA has broken the rules on countless occasions, this has been allowed. Until AA is either removed from this site or made to adhere to the covenants of the rules then they are useless. No one can be held accountable as the rules mean nothing. How many people have left because of ONE person? How many people DO NOT POST after reading? AA will not change her agenda. So it is incumbent on each and every one of you to shun her. Do not post in any thread started by this individual, and you will have control of the situation. Attention is all that matters - Do not respond. Simple.
- Do not open any threads created by this user. Simple.
Regain your piece of mind knowing that there are many more just like her out there spewing. Let them spew in silence. Silence my friends is your only tool. Things will not change unless YOU change. Refuse to be engaged. We have all fought here against the ignorance, and the hate. You will not mitigate this persons presence until it is ignored. When it is ignored, long enough, it will go away eventually. Do not respond in order to do that don't open any threads created by Ami Anne Common sense will not help the webmaster will not help truth will not help you cannot "win" and make the problem go away. UNLESS you refuse to respond. Let it expire from lack of oxygen. peace out Margarett IP: Logged |
