The words of compassion that came from the commentors just lifts my heart. What drags it down is that Christians are supposed to be compassionate and sympathetic, and then you get ones like that. They ruin it for the rest. I am talking about a blog I went to today and the owner posted an email that was sent to her, condemning her to hell for being a witch. It was angry and cruel and made me sick. I want no part of it anymore.
I just want to tell you how it warmed my heart that the comments were full of tenderness and understanding, not hate. None of them bashed her (the emailer), they offered to send this lady peace. While it's humorous that they offered it, I beleive it was also offered in sincerity.
The blog is linked to in my haunts section, if you wish to find it yourself. I won't promote this. I just wanted to mention it.

In 9 days! Are you excited? Ready to see your baby's face? Looking forward to being not-pregnant? I'm excited for you.
Bummer about that blog you mentioned.
Most religious types bum me out. I grew up catholic and was surround by those "holier-than-thou" types. I respect other people's beliefs but I wonder why these people need to foist their beliefs on me. They should concentrate on saving themselves.
Amen, Fredcq.
Dawn, like jublu, we're all excited for you!
Glad he's home. Can you email me the link? I can't figure out from your blogroll which one it is.
The two I thought of that are on mine aren't on yours.
I hope I didn't offend you by posting that email...
oh hell no crys, just the opposite. I cannot beleive that someone would send that to you. That just makes me sick. I was angry at her when I read it, and then felt bad when none of the other commentors reacted like me. I found they were very, very kind! This surprised me a bit, I am not used to such compassion- from anyone. It is a dream I have seen people aspire to, but not quite reach.
