I hope Satan doesn't take my soul. I hope Jesus comes back to save me. Saying those words are NOT an insult to a Christian or the bible. I could rephrase; I hope Satan takes my soul. I hope Jesus does not save me. These too, are not an insult to a Christian or the bible.
Therefore, "my hope," that something (ban/banned) does not happen by way of FFL, does not insult Rick. If I, out of nowhere started extremely insulting Rick and calling him names and try to provoke him,then, I believe, that would be an insult to Rick, depending on how successful I was at phrasing words together to get his goat, which I have not attempted to. Nabby, on the other hand, I delight at his sometimes weary mindsets. haha. At one time, Ravi was removed from FFL, and that was frightful to me at the time. I never saw what he did that justified the removal. (Did he use someone's real name?) I do not remember. If you notice there were (I am saying this for those newbies doing searches for group boards on search engines where all of this FFL YAHOO GROUP, intelligence is kept and seen.) a few really good creative writers who no longer post on the board. Why? Not because they were banned or removed. Maybe they felt humiliated in some way and did not find it fun to post here anymore. I miss those posters. They were the best writers and were very inspirational. So the word(s), ban or banned, as MJ has explained himself already today what lead him to come to that conclusion. I only jumped on the ban(d) wagon! Or is that off the ban(d) wagon? All it takes is a ban(d) of conspirators to team up against anyone on this board and push the limits that lead to bully band of biblical proportions and then the big red button is pushed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1XTDYiepMY . I witnessed one poster removed and that is enough for me to have my gun cocked ready to defend at the slightest sound of ban. I am not wishing to insult Rick. I am not hoping to insult Rick. I am not wishing to be on your to do list, either, auth. ;) ...and "Frankly, I don't give a damn." :) --- In [email protected], "authfriend" <authfriend@...> wrote: > > Obba, if you say "I hope X doesn't happen," it means > you think X is a possibility. > > And if you think it's possible that Michael would be > banned from FFL because of his negative views about > Maharishi, your thinking is *screwed up*.
