It Baffles Me Sometimes

I have been blocked a few times over the years. Not always, but there have been occasions I just don't know the reason behind their decision.

Take this instance for example. There were a total of 5 messages in the entire conversation. Three by me and two by the other party. Two of my three messages were "hearted", including the last one. One minute I am appreciated and when I look again I am blocked. Oh well.

I’ve had worse. I’ve been blocked and then particularly nasty words said about me in a post, which I cannot see or make defence.

But it says more about that person than it does of me.I move on.
@sunriselover I usually get blocked by “Christians” when I break it to them that their “god” does not exist.

They don’t like it.
@Adeptlinguist There are zealots everywhere. You just choose to pick on Christians. As a Christian, my belief is that everyone makes a choice, heaven or hell. But I surely wouldn't block anybody for thinking differently than me.

Oh ... and I rarely speak of being a Christian. So I am not preaching.
@OldGrandDad To be fair, I can be quite strident 😂

It’s a test of turning the other cheek. They usually fail.
@Adeptlinguist fair enough!
@OldGrandDad But I appreciate your tolerance of my intolerance!
@Adeptlinguist Yes, the evangelical fundamentalist Christians are an unforgiving lot. I get blocked by them. If that helps them on their path to heaven., I don’t mind

The Spirituality lot are constantly arguing. You will find no peace there.

@sunriselover I find the evangelicals to be the segment here that still recognizes that there's such a thing as morality, an actual Lord in heaven, an appropriate fate for shameless sinners, and enough love of their brothers and sisters to warn them that sinning risks an eternity in hell.

Furthermore I suspect that my fellow sister and brother non practicing Catholics are not bothered in the least by them and hope our church leaders will take the hint. At least far enough to break the terrible association with the term and sodomic pedastery.
@SteelHands Thanks for sharing

@sunriselover You're welcome for sure. Free association includes the right to not associate likewise. Except in hell, of course.

Bye now.
