Thanks, Mr. & for this vague but sweeping allegation. Thanks for lumping me in with unnamed "others."

What ideas of mine are you talking about, I wonder? Can you be more specific?

that's your life... and as I said, I am too busy in my real life to engage in conversations, in this instance, fruitless.

read again the quote you posted, I do not say that I want to help you or to change your way of thinking, I simply said WHY I do not subscribe to your way of thinking. for the rest, your rethoric use of FEAR and your faulty analysis and its reasons, that is really all your problem, nothing that I wished to change. that's your life.

edit: oh, I forgot, I owe you an unsincere &

I don't use fear as a point of rhetoric at all. But some of the things I address are scary. That's life. And I have 3H Pluto and Scorpio NN.

So I speak Pluto.

No one asked you to enjoy it, but it'd make for a more interesting discussion if you criticized me more carefully. These flippant remarks of yours just show that you are cranky.

I'm thinking I might start dropping my astrological calling card too. Might help elucidate my posts? Explain my quirks and motivations? Buy me a defense? Worth a try.

That's no criticism of you, Faith. Not at all. But I notice it's been a habit here at LL for so many years. I'm not sure why.

I'm also not sure if this is my Mars/Uranus conjunction talking. Perhaps my Pluto sitting right on the ascedant? I'll let ya'll decide.

Pire, I truely understand.

Right wing anything scares the heck out of me. Anyone or party that zealous will go to any length to gain power.

Shura, pluto on asc. for sure...

Well it's an astrological community so I mention these things. Shura, I HAVE been curious about your chart and appreciate the input. If pire's Pisces Mercury is okay with the tangents, will you please tell me more about yourself? Sun sign especially Oh and are you male or female, pray tell?

Does anyone here think I'm right wing? That's a marvel to me, since I never think of myself as right wing. I must be doing something by accident.

My guess would be is that she's trying to help you understand where she's coming from since you're not making sense and obviously aren't getting her accurately, y'all are just making vague statements that I don't understand either with a lot of nasty insinuations implied (which tells me it's more about feelings than rational thought that you know wouldn't last if brought before the bench of reason, otherwise it would be clearer). That is, she's not the one who needs a defense for their behavior in this thread here.

In any case she hasn't deserved being jumped on like this, and I don't see her as right wing or extremist (and being opposed to Obama's abuses of power doesn't make one right wing extremist either, not unless you count the ACLU as right wing extremists).

it seems it suits you both to suggest that anyone said faith was right wing... and you talk of being the representative of rational thinking vs emotional thinking?

this is what I said:

quote:
Under the disguise of advancing ideals of freedom, you use the same rethoric and the same mechanics of fear than the others to push forward your ideas. but a political position that stands on the principle that democracy is in danger entertain the idea that democracy is endangered. if the discourse is based on being against the ennemy of democracy, then democracy is still at stake. whereas I want to support groups that have real faith in it, that do not fear for it, because they know they have not to fear something bad since they are the only responsible for its outcome...

I do not say Faith is right wing. and nobody else did

Here's where it sounds like she's called right wing:

Perhaps she was referencing something else but it appears to me she said she understood where you were coming from and that would seem to reference this:

read again the quote you posted, I do not say that I want to help you or to change your way of thinking, I simply said WHY I do not subscribe to your way of thinking. for the rest, your rethoric use of FEAR and your faulty analysis and its reasons, that is really all your problem, nothing that I wished to change. that's your life.

edit: oh, I forgot, I owe you an unsincere &


Which, btw, comes off feeling a lot like an Ami Anne post by making an emotional appeal that's vague, unclear, contemptuous of any who dare disagree with you, doesn't have to explain itself, and ending with a peace & love.

I understand why charts would be discussed in the astro forums, but I see it pop up randomly in other LL forums. "I'm a cappie therefore .." or worse, "you are a saggie, therefore .." I suppose it's just shorthand among the astrologically inclined? I'm working at a disadvantage because astrology is not my native language.
Again, not pointing the finger at you in particular(or Ami and her misfortunate Gemini placements either) I think I first questioned AG about this several years ago.
I'm a Scorpio girl. Ami can fill you in on my Eris placement

PJ, in your referencing my quote, I was talking to pire about right wing (populists) his post! Not Faith. I even addressed him by name so as not to confuse.

My peaceful Libra rising would like to again stress that I am not jumping on Faith. In fact, I'm rather fond of Faith's posts. I skim over many, but will make it a point to read hers. (I'm also a sucker for pire. It's a french thing.) Libra rising notwithstanding, my demonic Pluto asc says that if he and my additional five planets in Scorpio ever do attack, you'll know it.

This is fun! (saggie moon)

Kinda chuckling here.

I understood what Pire was saying and he seemed to understand me. Which neither of us was saying, much less thinking, Faith was right wing. Keeping with the astro theme, it must be pire and my left field Aquarius thinking getting each other

------oopsie, I typed right wind and edited to correct it to right wing

I have Aquarius thinking (Mercury) so it must be an Aqua sun telepathy or something.

Thanks for not answering my questions about your sun sign or gender, as if you needed to demonstrate further just how secretive having five or six planets in Scorpio makes a person.
