Attacks in Paris

No it is not much better, she has been stopped from posting her views on this thread, better for you rosesarered because you have had things your way but unfair on soon who has felt she had to move to another thread

^ but I think it unfair in a supposed Christian country a Christian is asked not to post her Christian views on war . Dear God it's no different to extremists silencing Christians even if a gun isn't being used, a sharp tongue is^

Are you addressing me? A sharp tongue?


I was agreeing with soontobe in the one and only post I put on this thread until the last two!

Totally now

(especially as I spent a lot of last week in church ..... praying for peace, as were so many people - so where was God on Friday?)

No rosequartz , I was referring to rosesarereds posts on soons posts

Oh!

Anyway, for all our fervent prayers .....

So that's alright then!

RoseQuartz we both seem to be back .

anniebach do stop fussing and fighting, and allow this thread to get back on track.

At the beginning the thread was about to X pressing shock, horror and grief. Now it has turned to, what we think should be done about IS. What can be wrong with that?

And why not allow bible quotes? Freedom of speech and all that.

Well, if you want to bore everyone rigid.......

It's not the bible quotes as such. It's the back and forth arguing about whether soon's interpretation of them is correct or not.

I think we (and the media) should beware of talking about "Muslims" as if we are describing a homogenous group. Saudis have as little in common with Algerians as Brits have with Romanians, for example.

Ana, are you saying soon should not be given a reply because you disapprove of her post and any reply to her ?

That's very true absent there are a bewildering array of Muslim lines of faith, which us why so many of them are being killed by ISIS.

.rosesarered, if you hadn't picked on soons post there would be no fussing, you were wrong to dictate to her and have her move her views to another thread, I hsve no wish to keep this going but it is a matter of principle, you were wrong to dictate what should or should not be posted

No I am not saying that, Anniebach, and how you have managed to interpret my post as meaning that I have no idea...

Oh we all know what we mean when we talk about Muslims. You are splitting hairs.

I have been back over thread as far as noon yesterday. Can't find any religious quotes. And cup of tea cold.

Talk about twisting what's actually been said...

No it is not much better, she has been stopped from posting her views on this thread, better for you rosesarered because you have had things your way but unfair on soon who has felt she had to move to another thread

Is this true? GNHQ have told a member to stop posting her views on this thread??
That seems a bit draconian even if some people felt that the thread had been derailed meandered rather far from the original post. But if I remember aright, Soontobe herself said quite early on that she thought certain questions might warrant a different thread on a different day which struck me as perfectly reasonable at the time.

There have been some people who have persisted in pursuing other areas which many of us felt inappropriate at the time. And got shot down in flames for it were duly put in our place

STOP - all of those arguing about unimportant side issues. We should not be fighting amongst ourselves.

I think I may have perfected the art of skimming over posts that don't grab me as being interesting in the first instance.

I did not say you said it Ana, I asked if it was what you meant

STOP in the name of peace.

Ana, are you saying soon should not be given a reply because you disapprove of her post and any reply to her ?

Why?

STOP
