Here's the thing...

I got divorced because I was tired of fighting and being bullied.  I certainly don't intend to put up with it on Blogit. A bully picks on others because he can. If you don't let him, he can't.  Block him already.  Don't reward his behavior with clicks.

You are going to make yourself sick over his posts and comments. We are all old enough to read and decide for ourselves nomatter what is said we are able to sort it out and decide what is truth ot simply not worthy of our click or the time spent thinking about someone elses uninformative and negitive thoughts. I think it would serve you well to ignore the post because bringing names up will only cause others to click out of curiosity. Take Care!

If it Bothers You, Only You Can Change the Situation for You
We cannot control or change any behavior except ours.  We can report and do many things, ultimately we must decide what is best for us.  I had a person here who disrespected me.  I did what I had to do and now there is a repectful relationship both ways.  Confront, Expose, Sanction (by legitimate authority) is the only way to handle situations of this nature or just walk away.  Make sure that your joy is not taken by the situation.

I think if you'll check with George and Jesus, we might be able
To find some scriptural basis for calling fire down upon the dude. Maybe he'll learn a little respect.

I don't know the entire situation. I have tried very hard to stay out of blogit battles since my return.  When I first came back two people here that I consider friends were going at it pretty hard.  It took me some time to even realize who was battling whom.

I believe if we continue to give attention to bad behavior it continues and they get more and more clicks out it.  If he is getting your goat, then his goal is being met.  I know it is much easier said than done, but simply ignore it and eventually he will get bored and move onto something else.  If it that bad, I would report him to admin.  We had one who repeatedly attacked Ariala sometime back and she was removed for violation of policy.

A childlike being crying for attention and help?

You may be on to something. What he has on there now would fit into that scenario. A link that is so gross. The comments are not favorable either. Those of this ilk are a dangerous breed, mostly to themselves, but also to young believers who are not discipled yet. Be blessed friend.

Thank you so much. The reporting did not good. Hasn't in the past either, by me or others on here. Have you seen what he has on there now? It is so gross, beyond what should be in any group. The comments are not at all favorable to him either. I showed George your comment he laughed and laughed. I do appreciate all of you standing with me.

Truth is I have reported him several times. Zilch! If you see what he has posted not and follow the link it is too much for any decent group to allow.

I don't understand anyone who spends their time in hatred. It is like a horrible disease. Thank you for your comment.

Justi, I've just figured out where Xenox's name came from.

According to the quasi religion of scientology, there was an evil galactic tyrant called Xenu who populated the earth (a bazillion million years ago) by transporting undesirable sorts from outer space to Earth, blowing them up with Hydrogen bombs and doing other unmentionable deeds.  Hmmmm, definite similarities, wouldn't you say? At least in name?

It's odd, isn't it?

How certain people are in favor of seemingly heinous concepts while opposing other concepts vital to our security?  Like freedom of speech that seems to aid and abet the terrorists (i.e. NY Times)?  Or in favor of free speech rights for all except, it would seem, Christians?  Go figure. 

Well, Justi, you're not surprised, are you?

There will always be people like this....

We must never back down from the likes of these cowards. I'm glad your reported him but I thought of Peter's statement to Jesus:

"Lord, shall we call fire down from heaven to burn them up?"

Hell yes!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!

Justi, emotionally I am right on with Passionflower, and actually also from
a practical standpoint. I believe it would be best to report him for plagarism; if he stops, then the problem is solved. If he continues, report him each time! Otherwise, HE WINS! DO NOT ENABLE HIM!

I honestly do not understand those who will not allow others the freedoms they wish to have here. We all have a right to express our opinions, and we should respect all those with whom we may not agree.
