<<< Please consider what is going on here. The Faith board may rangle some folks nerves, but the inevitable is that they will get over it. When folks live out 90% of their existence at a feeling level, being internally blackmailed by their bad feelings, anything that goes against their internal imperatives (shoulds and dont's) is disturbing to them.

Most often they report, "I can't stand the way that makes me feel!" In fact they have stood it and will continue to be able to stand it.

I for one, probably won't return to the Faith board because I'm not a "good-boy" when I post there. I don't appreciate being judged for my conjectures about faith, and then being subject to your wrath for not keeping my disgust to myself. I have been blocked more for posts to the faith board than any other.

This IS your project! You have every right to manage the decorum as you see fit. I have the right to choose wisdom and not post on the Faith board. Many others may do the same, if they so choose.

Internal conflictedness is likely to be our peril if only for a moment, a day, several months, a year, a decade, or even a lifetime. internal conflictedness is earmarked by seemingly unresolvable issues, with at least one issue inexorably (seemingly) tied to "family-of-origin" issues and family-enmeshement (codependency). The family-enmeshement issues are the most likely to "highjack" and/or "blackmail" our sensibilities. We act counter-intuitively and suffer the consequences by for the sake of the family, such as it is.
