Dear Peggy -
First, thanks for your support for one of my previous posts - I don't think I've yet had anyone say that they agree 100% with anything I've written!
I understand your need for Christian suppport. This board, however, is more for all sorts of varying faiths to support each other. At least that's the goal. What I've experienced in the year that I've been on this board is that some faiths are more tolerated than others.
This isn't a surprise to me, since I remember Jesus words about the world hating us because it first hated Him. Persecution comes with the package. It can hurt, but it shouldn't surprise us.
Few Christians, at least few who admit they're Christians, frequent this board. Those who do find that they have to walk a fine line to keep from being "blocked". Many, many things that Jesus said in His word are "block-worthy". You can read back through the archives to get an idea of what I'm saying.
I'm willing to offer whatever support I can, but it's probably best done through email. You can reach me: brehmites@aol.com
Shalom, Dena
