I feel like part of this does involve admin, because we (well I am, and I think Kiddo is too) that we are just telling of our experiences and beliefs and we should be allowed to do that just as Lou has been allowed to tell his "experiences". I never, EVER said he didn't have these experiences, nor that his beliefs are wrong. I never said "Jews are bad" or anything like that. All I'm saying (and I think Kiddo is as well) is that we believe in the Bible. Old and New Testament, through and through. I won't go into all my beliefs here, for the sake of keeping this administrative. I have not rocked the boat by reading and responding to Lou. I just feel that if he's able to talk about his story/beliefs, anyone else can talk about theirs.
Furthermore, I am not against gays (I have a gay friend in-fact), alcoholics (I have many of those friends) and my list goes on. I do not shut people out because they are Jewish, gay or alcoholic. I sort of "shut my eyes" to Lou because I get frustrated conversing with him, so for ME that was the best thing to do. I'm not saying that is for everyone to do. I'm not on a "Block Lou forever" bandwagon. I'm just saying what seems to be working for me.
