Guest guest Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Have you ever noticed what happens to a good natured child that compromises with a bully? They end up getting their lunch money taken away, day in and day out or some other abuse. If that same compromising child would have been able to discern that compromising with an abuser...namely the bully in this case, only leads to continued abuse, than that child would have known to 1. put their foot down in the first place and not allow the initial lunch money be taken away, or 2. Go to someone with more authority/power who could FORCE the bully to stop their abuse. In a perfect world, compromising with bullies and abusers sounds pretty. Here on Earth, however, compromising with a bully only makes them think they can bully you another day. Bullies/abusers/terrorists, don't respect boundaries. They don't care about what you want, what you need, what you believe, what you like. They are self centered. They have their own ideals of good and bad. Their own beliefs of how things should or should not be. Of what belongs to them. Their own agenda of what THEY want...and they WILL force themselves on you IF YOU LET THEM. This can be by being complacent or it can be as simple as being ignorant enough to think if one compromises with a bully, all their troubles will go away. A realistic perusal of past and present history SCREAMS this statement to be true. If a bully will not stop bullying, YOU MAKE THEM STOP. If you do not have the power to make them stop, you find a mommy or a daddy, or on a bigger scale, a governmental scale, an ally, to HELP YOU MAKE THEM STOP. If someone wants to kill you, there is only one thing you can do with that and it's self explanatory. Bacteria, just takes over. Good plan when you're dealing with a bully. Fill your gut with good bacteria and let it show the bad bacteria whose boss. No compromise, just wipe the bad guys out. I'm up with that. We could learn a lot from pro-biotics. :0) ¸... ´¨¨)) -:¦:- ¸..´ ..´¨¨)) ((¸¸..´ ...´ -:¦:- 2006~*~The Year of My Suddenlies -:¦:- ((¸¸..´*.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 A point could be made that that may be the larger reason for the wars and conflicts, that the people engaging in such have chosen to be here on this world at this time doing that to learn those lessons, even if that lesson is to learn of the futility of war. Still, one can speak out about it: " It is our earth, not yours or mine. We are meant to live on it, helping each other, not destroying each other....If you harm others, if you kill others, whether in anger or by organized murder which is called war, you, who are the rest of humanity, not a separate human being fighting the rest of mankind, are destroying yourself.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 I was speaking more towards why taking the side of the bully is wrong. In some instances, it is difficult to see who exactly is the bully. Social tensions rise for years before fighting breaks out. Who said the first insult? Threw the first rock? Shot the first gun? If you don't know for 100% sure, then you need to let them figure it out for themselves. If you want to be involved: sit them down at a table. But for all other purposes, let them compromise on their own. -Lana If a bully will not stop bullying, YOU MAKE THEM STOP.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 If we don't know who the bully is, we need to read true history. Not the revised terrorist version...real historic events. Sit down at a table? Sit down at the table and...What? Talk to the 'nice' terrorist? " Mr. Terrorist, please don't kill us anymore, ok? Maybe we can help by sending some of those suicide murderers to counseling? This is a win win, Mr. Terrorist. That way, maybe they won't kill themselves in our grocery stores anymore taking our mommies and children with them. Ok, Mr. Terrorist? " " More land, Mr. Terrorist? Maybe we can make the rest of the country 9 miles wide, it gives us less to take care of. " The point is YOU DON'T COMPROMISE. Compromising is a joke. Compromise with a bully today and they'll take your lunch money tomorrow. YOU DO NOT...Let me rephrase that, YOU CANNOT compromise with a terrorist and hope for anything good for YOU to come of it. They want you dead. How do you compromise with a person that wants you to die simply because of who you are? And further, believes that by killing you, they are worshiping their god? Just remember, terrorists are bad bacteria. It's very simple when you think about it that way. ¸... ´¨¨)) -:¦:- ¸..´ ..´¨¨)) ((¸¸..´ ...´ -:¦:- 2006~*~The Year of My Suddenlies -:¦:- ((¸¸..´*.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 STOP accusing me of saying " negotiate with terrorists " . I am speaking in the general sense: NOT about any particular conflict. You on the other hand, are speaking of something more specific, it seems. Yes, in the case where you are 100% sure who the bully is, your point rings true. Way to flame someone for something they didn't even say. (ONCE AGAIN: I am speaking GENERALLY, in regards to conflicts as menial as siblings over a toy, NOT about any politics or any current world events!!!) Blinding yourself by thinking there is always a 100% clear bully in every conflict is rediculous. A lot of the time you don't know because its just a he-said she-said. Always being on the offensive to pound the enemy into the ground no matter who, no matter what, no matter why is wrong. " Never Compromise! " is just as bad as " always compromise. " Of course, *sometimes* drastic measures need to be taken. But for the most part, we need to foster a world where people still know how to compromise - even if they don't have the opportunity to use that skill very often. -Lana On 8/6/06, ~*~~*~ <shelleycornell@...> wrote: > > If we don't know who the bully is, we need to read true history.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 1. ALWAYS being on the offensive, ready to pound into the ground, the enemy that wants to kill you, is EXACTLY the way you keep breathing. 2. I did not say you NEVER compromise. I said you never compromise with someone who wants to kill you. 3. When you are dealing with an enemy that wants you to die, the only compromise you have with them is for you to die. This is not a compromise I would choose to make. 4. Some enemies speak a different language. Often times, the only language they understand is the language of death. You must learn to speak your enemy's language if you want them to understand you. 5. If you aren't always 100% sure of who the enemy is any conflict, you're potentially pretty screwed. I did not mean to get into this little banter with you, but let me say, it has been my pleasure. I think we have worn it out now, but before I go, I want to offer my sincerest, thanks... ¸... ´¨¨)) -:¦:- ¸..´ ..´¨¨)) ((¸¸..´ ...´ -:¦:- 2006~*~The Year of My Suddenlies -:¦:- ((¸¸..´*.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 I agree 100% with . However, I am not a Republican, and we ALL have issues. Funny though, I keep asking questions about fermented foods, and get no answers. Maybe if I made my question about a fermented food allegory I would get better purchase. So a Harsch crock walks into a talent agent's office, and exclaims, " I have the act you have been looking for! " The crock then begins juggling veggies, salt, water and a few cloves of garlic. Then the crock crams all of the vegetables AND the salt AND the water into its self, pounds the #### out of it with a wooden mallet, ferments, then audibly lets gas escape from under its lid, and yells, " TAH DAH! " The talent agent scratches his head for a minute and finally says, " That's quite an act, what do you call it? " " The Aristicrats " , came the reply.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Ah my Dearest Deanna, it has been too long. Indeed, I've used much the same approach with double edged results. And, not even always successfully on the up edge, or was that the down edge. Hmmm. Symbiosis. Yes. Acceptance. The more I look at the symbiosis thing the more all inclusive it seems. Do we really have to coexist with everything and everyone in balance and harmony? Even those who would bully and mercilessly attack our guts with " good " and/or " bad " bacteria, and our minds with their " good " and/or " bad " notions about anything and everything?

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 ... I guess it just depends on your source of information and your definition of what a terrorist is. People are not gods. They are not perfect. However, when you have a group of people dedicated for thousands of years, hundreds of years, decades, to the annihilation of another people group, and they actively and daily pursue this...I think it's pretty self explanatory. And as I said, that would depend on how reliable your source of information is. I am not one that believes that just because it is written, it's true. So you don't think it's good to be on the offensive, ready to strike someone that wants to kill you, huh? How would you handle that? Thanks for your input, I value your opinion.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 i am not wishing anyone, especially you, harm. i am just amused at your posts. And i am baffled at your kill or be killed attitude. Where does this begin, i wonder? Obviously, with that attitude it cannot possibly end except for total destruction of your " enemy " . And looking at the country that i live in (US), enemies are being conjured up all the time. I was raised to fear and hate communists and now i am being told to hate and fear terrorists. The people i fear the most are the ones running my country into the ground who are trying to tell me that i have to hate and kill people of islamic countries or they will kill me. I just spent a few days playing music with a sufi musician from Turkey and an Arabic musician from Palestine. We were all part of an international faculty of music teachers at the Lark Music Camp in mendocino. Noone tried to kill anyone and we all walked away with smiles on our faces. I much prefer living this way than in fear and having to want to kill or be killed. Anyways, back to the topic of this list.....i am about to open a crock full of kraut that has been fermenting for almost 2 months and another crock of saikyo type white miso.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 I don't have anyone in my life that wants to kill me. For me to be on the offensive would simply draw that sort of person to me. I can't recall the last time a person even raised their voice to me, let alone threatened me in any way. I'm not certain which group of people you refer to as terrorists, since you are not being specific. I would observe that the two Bush presidents seem to have dedicated themselves to destroying Iraq for a couple of decades, perhaps they qualify?

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Well, Phil, I think that people are here to work out their their spiritual progression, whatever that might be. Those people who see war everywhere and violence peeking out of every bush are here to experience something about that. I would wish that those who are in favor of war would just quit being armchar generals and go fight in the wars they favor. Surely they could get in as mercinaries or something if they are too old for a regular military unit. Then maybe they would start to understand the futility of it after a while and cool off. It's one thing to sit and jabber, another to take knife and gun in hand and start killing people every time there is a war that you think is justified somehow. PS Like the plymouth rock joke!
