Is there something wrong with me?  What JesusLovesYou said was just so much like the crap that was shoved down my throat, I was totally sickened.  Do you have days like that?  Does it mean I need to take a step back?

I think I deserve extra

I think I deserve extra points for my thorough response in that other thread...and for the headache and stomach ache. Sticking out tongue

If you think you are some

If you think you are some how over working yourself or getting burned out PLEASE take a break. Maybe all you need is a day or two without having to argue or research. There is nothing wrong with a little R and R Eye-wink

Absolutely take a break if you need to.

I feel my fists cliching too. But no one on either side of this issue needs to physically act out.

I am not adressing you per say. BUT both Christians and atheists get pissed at each other. I think the best thing is to take a break when you need to.

I would suggest that on any issue. Sports rivals exibit the same intense feelings. For example. I want to throw a brick at the TV when my favorite team the Redskins lose to the Cowboys.

BUT, I dont do that. And I certainly wouldnt beat up a Cowboy fan over a game.

Jesusloveyou and his words are going to upset you. Not because they are true, we both know they are not. But when you hear it over and over and over and over and over it becomes a broken record.

So taking a break is important so that you dont burn out or boomerange.
