Re: Waste of energy

What I meant was to not acknowledge any of his posts in any way. They are mired in controversy, as you say, and they are also misleading in that someone who is really seeking what joy can be found in Christ can be easily sidetracked if they're struggling. Reincarnation? A child "remembering" being an angel? Please. The pony shows are pretty rote and the videos, the reaction images, and the smoke and mirrors are tiresome and trite.

I think what I have found to be the greatest challenge for me, personally, is the willingness to let go. To surrender my control issues, my fears, etc. has been quite interesting. I thought I'd be empty if I didn't have those lifelong companions dictating my reactions and choices. That, for me, has been a huge hurdle. Then, when I'm on the other side of that hurdle, it wasn't terrible after all.

And, for the record, I came into this forum in a very bad frame of mind and I apologize to everyone that I offended. I still don't like what some people are doing behind the forum boards, but I'm not in control of those actions and they have their own consequences that have nothing to do with me.
