Strange, why don't you say that to your good buddy Tom? And considering your many
outbursts and snide, even viscous comments that you have made about others, I
suggest you check your blood pressure too.

Whew, thanks, you had me worried. (In case you missed that, it was a snide remark)
Mr. Guy, I'm deeply saddened by your having been overly exposed to "many in the
clergy" since so much of American Christianity is emasculated; you have obviously
gotten the idea that a minister is supposed to be a milquetoast sort of person. I'm
not. Never have been, God willing, never will be. Neither were the great Christian
leaders of past generations (which I'm not, and have no delusions of ever being.)

It doesn't apply when your good name is under attack. Thank you for demonstrating
your profound ignorance of Scripture and Scriptural ethics. (Next you'll probably
quote "Judge not lest you be judged", the only verse of Scripture that very pagan
in America knows.) Turning the other cheek has to do with not defending yourself
when you are being attacked because you belong to Christ, and that doesn't apply
here. I've been attacked for suggesting that someone should ask a very simple
question. A wise question, regardless of whether Mr. Turley was involved or not. It
has been alleged that the questioner made an error. I am smeared because I, in good
faith, accepted the questioner's presentation of the request made of him. I have a
responsibility to defend my good name. Given the rhetoric that has been used, my
responses were mild, at first. Further, I see no good reason for you to have
entered the dispute, it did not concern you, your reputation or your activities.
Some people just enjoy a good fight I suppose.
In my 46 years on this earth, I've rarely seen a good example of sticking your nose
into someone else's business. This isn't one either.
