Nitpicking petty troublemaker about a simple question. Hi folks Was there any purpose served by a blog which came up immediately after my last one IN WHICH I WAS MERELY ASKING A VERY SIMPLE QUESTION in order get a very general feel about where people's priorities are today? The attack blog I'm citing ran like this: "The battle between believers and non-believers of Christianity began AGES ago. Do you think we can blithely resolve it here on SFF by BELLOWING our positions for or against? Is it necessary to DEFEND our faiths here , or might it have greater effect if we simply practiced what we preach out of personal commitment? Just an attitude question .......... in giving you just three options: *Let it rest - this site is not a pulpit *Act the part, no matter what your truth, and it will garner respect *Definitely BOTH of the above. I realize SFF is just a microcosm of society, but my original blog was merely an attempt to gage how people prioritize things in their lives today. as opposed to how people of past generations did. And the last sentence clearly stated that there was NO RIGHT OR WRONG ANSWER! WAS ANYONE OBLIGATED TO ANSWER? WAS ANYONE EVEN OBLIGATED TO READ IT? WHERE DID MY BLOG ADDRESS ANY "BATTLES?" DID MY BLOG INSULT ANYONE? CAN IT BE CONSTRUED AS AN ATTEMPT TO? AND WHAT IDIOT WOULD THINK MY BLOG WAS AN ATTEMPT TO "BLITHELY RESOLVE" ANYTHING AT ALL? DID I "BELLOW" ANYTHING? WAS IT NOT STUPID FOR SOMEONE SUPPOSEDLY EDUCATED AND WHO TAUGHT ENGLISH IN OUR NATION'S PUBLIC SCHOOLS TO READ SUCH BASELESS ASSUMPTIONS INTO MY BLOG, WHICH WERE OBVIOUSLY NOT EVEN THERE? (I hope the public schools can improve so that she can go back and learn what she should have when she was young.) AND WHERE IS THE AUTHOR OF THE ATTACK BLOG ON ME BEEN WHEN OTHER BLOGGERS WHO REALLY IN FACT DO TRY TO TURN SFF INTO A "PULPIT?" (There is one person for example, who posts a daily entry which is a quote directly out of a Christian tract. But the author of the attack blog makes no criticism of those blogs.) DID MY BLOG "PREACH" ANYTHING? DID MY BLOG CALL ON ANYONE TO "DEFEND" ANYTHING? I invite anyone who wishes, to go back and look at my previous blog, and you should note that the answer to all of the above questions was no. So why would anyone choose to go out of their way to post an entire attack blog unless they wanted trouble? Especially when they are, and always have been, free to post their opinions there in my blog which they are attempting to criticize? Could she not have merely asked simple questions in a polite manner if she wanted clarification before making such outrageously naive assumptions? Here's the answer: The author of that blog is just another of those people who make deliberate and yet stupid assumptions and read FAR too much into innocuous questions, merely for the purpose of starting an argument. It all runs back to times she and her ilk have initiated fights because some people disagree with them, and she can't refute their logic. Apparently, that "person" assumes data collection is the same thing as advocacy. It's not. Apparently she also stupidly assumes that I care which side of the fence people stand on. I don't. (People are free to ascribe to Christianity or not as they individually choose. Or worship turnips if they want. Or Allah. Or be an atheist. I don't care at all what people choose for themselves. NOTHING IN MY ORIGINAL BLOG ADVOCATED ANYTHING.) Had that author of the blog I quoted here had the education of a sophomore in college, (Basic logic principals they SHOULD have learned in second-year English, was obviously missing because they let their ignorance and bias mislead them. It appears the person is unfamiliar with the formal logical processes taught to all students taking even the most basic required English courses in college for ANY student, not just to mention English majors. Perhaps some few other folks might make some of the same mistaken assumptions about my blog or my intentions. And I can't say they are all stupid hypocrites like she is. They shouldn't be held to the same level of integrity, and intellectual standards as she should be. After all, not all of them were in fields that demand the same levels of accountability and competency that an English Teacher. But for someone who made a career as an English teacher in the public schools, it's a demonstration of exactly why the schools in the USA have turned out students with consistently lower average test scores every year for decades. She represents what is so disgusting about some teachers today that obscene is a better word to describe it. And I also have to ask if anyone can tell me why the last two times I've posted a poll on any topic, she gets upset about my efforts to learn about and understand YOU, the rest of the bloggers on SFF? If she has some problem with people taking polls, where is her outrage at another blogger who posts one daily? If my poll was advocating something, should I assume that the daily pollster is advocating something in those polls? (The most recent one was just another amusing question to introduce an interesting factoid about chores women do three times more than men. Should we therefore assume that pollster is advocating anything? Perhaps asserting a woman's right to her own reproductive choices? No, because just like person who posted her attack blog that I cited here, we would be guilty of deliberately attempting to distort the truth in a vain unjustified and childishly petty attempt to denigrate someone whom we may dislike.) As to my poll, she could have chosen to answer or not. Or not even read my blog at all. So what was her purpose? And who are the troublemakers in SFF blogs? It is flattering at first, but tiresome when she and her co-horts fear and resent me so much, that they are so desperate to make trouble out of any tiny thing they can imagine a way to make an issue of. These few ancient bimbos should move on. To persist like they do makes them skanks. Last time it was because I pointed out 5 Truths she fears about economics and social engineering. No one else responding was angry, hostile, or ranted, even tho there many GROWN UPS there who managed to disagree with me without making personal attacks. There instead, she didn't even mention the topic at all. Instead, she just went off on an insane rant against me personally, and my habit of sign-off. I mention that because she was soon followed by some yapping little dogs looking for anything they could pretend they had a justification for anger about. If she and her ilk don't truly seek fighting in the blogs, then why do they constantly and deliberately go to such lengths to start it with me? (This time, as it always has been proven before, they just can't stand that I'm right. Further, because I'm just not afraid to disagree with them, they can't control me or the rest of the blogs. GBU all, Gavin |
