Debate, and discuss, just dont Bore me.
And mean what you say
Published on December 18, 2004 By Dr Guy In Current Events

I wrote an article about 2 months ago trying to stem the tide of those that would take what I say, and distort it.  When I write, I mean what I say.  However, on occasion, I have had to refine what I said due to the fact that anyone can misspeak and some have called me on that.  For that I am thankful I can clarify what I said.

However, it goes on.  My latest article has people reading into what they want to see, instead of what I say.  But I have come to expect that.

But this is not about my word and what I mean to say or not mean to say.  This is about keeping your word.  Several have trashed JU and stormed off in a huff. To them I say good riddance.  But then they slink back under the cover of their membership and continue to not only snipe and spit, but are now posting new articles.  I guess Blogspot is not what it cracked up to be.

However in their petulance to leave, they did say some very nasty things to many of the JU community.  has anyone received a 'sorry' yet? I dont think so.

Everyone admires a person of principal, no matter if they agree with them or not.  No one admires a quitter, whether you agree with them or not. 

So stop quitting and being a loser!  Stick around and try learning and debating.

Or not, your chose, quitter.

Yes, insightful...and I know you're having a problem with an expanding head, but I think you can handle it.

I have a question, admitedly a mostly rhetorical question: why is so hard for people to A) either admit they made a mistake, or simply apologize for bad behavior (real or perceived)?

Because their arrogance and ego blind them to "A" and "B"

Because you are the great moderate.  And when you speak, both conservatives and liberals listen as you speak from wisdom!  You have always been nice.  I said that because I value your wisdom, not because you have ever been mean.


Sorry for the misperception.  And thank you again!

Heather gave you one answer.  I will give you mine (and yes, I am almost 50, so old).


maturity and pride.  A mature person can, but sometimes pride stops them.  A realy mature person knows that pride is transitory, and knowledge is paramount.  I lost my pride long ago, but not before I got maturity.  I know I am wrong and I admit it.  And my pride no longer suffers.  There was only one perfect man, and he died 2000 years ago.
