Moderator...if you carefully read my original post I said NOTHING about God or the Bible. You say it is off topic but we ARE communicating and expressing ourselves in the English language so the post was MY OPINION on how we use said language to communicate. I am not really sure why you and Kenosha were so triggered by my post.
"Yes, you can choose whatever word you want to express yourself...but should you???" Is the crux of the matter.
I am sorry that encouraging people to aspire to be the best version of themselves is so offensive. Fine wine, exquisite food, pleasant accommodations and fine writing all has something in common...they rise above the common ordinary things of this world. THAT was the point of the post. Sorry you missed that.
Anyway, you know I have enjoyed your writing and opinion and I wish you well, as always. Take care.

I never said you did, but you act like we are.

And I responded with MY opinion in MY thread. I wasn't 'triggered' any more than you were to post your opinion. Settle down and learn to live and let live. Freedom of expression includes talking in a manner that is normal for oneself or for those you're communicating to, and that can include the age-old tradition of swearing. I think the person you originally responded to made it as clear as he could to me in as few words as possible what he felt about Lindell. I have no problem with that, and the response was directed at me, not you. If anyone was triggered, it was you.

You're implying that there should be some sort of rules about freedom of speech, and on a site that respects freedom of speech no less. I'm her because I can say fuck or cunt or asshole as much as I can say anything else short of what's illegal to post.

To each their own. I don't drink alcohol but I smoke weed and I've indulged in a few other things when the quality was good, and that shouldn't be used as a measure of my character or the quality of my lifestyle or anything else. We live in a free society and it only stays free as long as people don't start complaining about the small things and expect everyone else to live by their standards. That's the only reason I spoke up, because you're pushing your standards on others.
Fuck that shit.
