Please don't take this the wrong way, but that sentence reminds me of

nada's house. 'Sensitive' topics were off limits and criticism wasn't

tolerated (it still isn't, to this day). If someone is expressing

anger at the role religion played in their abuse, it is not meant as a

personal attack on someone else's religion. Also, I don't think it's

fair to make Edith the forum police -- we're all adults here?

Just an opinion -- pls don't take it personally(thanks)...sunsh

Is somebody picking on God again??? I thought the consensus was that

it is actually Walmart that is evil.....

Let me know when this all gets straightened out....

I'm having trouble keeping up with the good, the bad, and the ugly..

not to be criticized. There was a recent post that was very negative

and offensive regarding Christians. I understand that everyone is

entitled to their own interpretations but if this is to be a safe

place then I feel that religion should not be criticized. I would

never speak negatively of anyone's religion and would like to know

that the same courtesy is extended to others.

Kathy,

I haven't followed all the posts recently, so I am not sure which one

you are referring to. If I read it, I know that it wasn't offensive

to me. I'm just saying that to point out that what is offensive to

one person may not be to someone else.

Did you reply to the poster(s) about your feelings? Would that be a

helpful way for you to protect your boundaries? This is just a

thought. In my past, I have sometimes tried to get something done

without offending anyone. The end result was usually that no one was

offended, and nothing got done. This is a safe board, and I hope you

feel safe going directly to someone who you feel has been offensive

and get a discussion going to clarify the issue.
