> I appreciate your convictions Scott.
Toph:Mine weren't personal.
Rayww:Again, Ray, I apologize. I never wanted to see you blocked. However, I do understand how your statements could have been interpreted as being uncivil if the site guidelines were administered in a certain way by Dr. Bob. That's just the way I see things. I am sorry if you feel that I have attacked you or put you down. It was about the words, not the person.
I have nothing against you personally. I respect you. I admire your dedication to doing good and not evil. I respect your right to having your own belief system, and I have no designs on changing it. I enjoy your intelligence and its application in matters of philosophy. I happen to like your religion. I understand and appreciate your loyalty to it.
If we both appear together on the Faith board, I don't doubt that we will again disagree on matters of belief. Hopefully, our respect for each other and our acknowledgement of each other's rights to have separate belief systems will surmount those differences and allow for civil discourse, as difficult as that may be to achieve.
I hope Dr. Bob reduces the length of your block and that you return to Psycho-Babble.
- Scott
