I apologize, but I am behind in monitoring the emails.  I just now got
to this one.  

Blaine, I know what you wrote was in a private email and then forwarded
to the list, but Kevin wants me to lecture you too, so here goes.
Please do not use personal attacks against people on the list.  Ok?

Kevin, quit being a baby.  Right now I feel just like when one of my
children calls me over to tattle on her sister.  She wants me to spank
her sister for something or tell her to stop doing something.  I usually
wipe the snot off her nose with a Kleenex just before telling her to
work it out herself.  So Kevin, I'm going to say the same thing to you.
Stop whining.  Suck it up like a man.  Stick to the discussion.  Work it
out in a way that you will not provoke people to attack you personally.
If you speak the Word of God, people will call you much worse than what
you are complaining about now.  You want a fair rule here?  That's what
we have.  The rule applies equally to both sides, but as I said before,
I give a lot of latitude and try not to be constantly sticking my nose
into correcting everyone.  If I have to say something, that is a shame
on everyone involved, not just the person I might single out at the
time. 

The goal is to discuss our different viewpoints and make arguments
concerning what we view to be true.  When the discussion focuses upon
another list member, that is off track.  It is a simple rule to help us
stick to debating the issues rather than people fighting each other
online.  Remember, while you might be intensely interested in your
particular fight with somebody, your emails become extremely boring to
everyone else.  Nobody is rooting for a winner in such an exchange.  We
all just want it to stop.  So kiss and makeup and try to stick to
discussing truth and not list members.

Peace be with you.
David Miller, Beverly Hills, Florida.
