Aside from that, it is becoming a bit obvious that you lack empathy for the poster in any given situation. I think we should all search ourselves for empathy before posting. If you cant find any, maybe posting doesnt serve the right purpose? You can post your opinion without being disparaging so I have to wonder -how is that everyone else has managed to state their opinions disagree or agree with the poster and none of them except you ever makes it seem like they seriously dislike her? I am sure you will deny that you have any specific dislike for her but you need to tone it down a bit IMO. The fact that I read the negativity ( not the opinion, but the negativity) looked up saw your name and just sighed because I recognized your name from similar posts before - it's just getting old.

Oh my - I did respond to the substance of your post first - that was my first paragraph. Maybe you forgot to read that part?
I have never responded to the other poster in the way you described. Categorically untrue. I have responded to you though I dont think I have ever been scathing as much as I have always have defended rlch and her choices. it was once implied that she enjoyed the drama and I did come to her defense - I would do it again in a heartbeat and I wasnt the only one who did.
There is no clique - we are not in high school. I maintain quite simply that there is a way to post without being so clearly disparaging EVEN when you disagree. The rest of us do it quite easily.
It also appears I am not the only one who feels this way.

You think I responded to silverlining by being scathing?
Just making sure I read that right...
I remember responding to raquel but not silverlining. And I remember sticking up for rlch quite a bit.
Sorry if I have been offensive. I thought I was rather being supportive of the OP. I am certainly willing to take another look at it though.
I also think I have written many more posts to build up, not tear down. I am never trying to tear down to be honest.
Yikes!

If it's not your religion or belief system and if you don't agree with the practices of that particular church or religion why instill it in your children?

I absolutely agree with both you (City) and Lonelymom.....this other poster needs to look inside herself and try to understand why she seems so obsessed with putting down Rlch all the time.
