Because I recognize I hurt your feelings. In truth, you and I probably agree on a lot politically, but we never respond to each other when we agree... only when we disagree. I was in error for thinking we could "lambast" each other and there isn't really any hard feelings. Mitspa and I sort of have that relationship. That is why I am quick to apologize. It doesn't make my apology (peace) false.
My feelings are not hurt. You assume they are......there is no way you could hurt my feelings.

Why get to an apology so fast? All your doing is making a false peace. Do you want real peace or a false one?
Sirk you are the wrong in this one, she apologized and owned up for her actions which shows maturity humbleness and the willingness to admit to be being wrong I have nothing but respect for her words to you about this.
It isn't making false peace to apologize and own up to your mistakes I would rather still the waters by apologizing and owning up to anything wrong I have done or said than to fan the flame and she chose the better path

Then I guess I'm confused as to why you're comparing two completely different scenarios then. From your actions, it sounds like you were really hurt and have been waiting for the moment I mix up people's name so you can throw this in my face, even though I wasn't blasting/attacking Kayla.

What is it you want me to do/say that I haven't already? Or are you just venting?

I have never given the impression that I am above anyone on this forum....because I know that I am not. I don't try to be better, I don't compare myself to others. I own the mistakes I make without being defensive...here and in real life with people that are around me. I do however attempt to apply pressure to the thinking of people who claim the mantle of Christian...because I know how much people that I know doing it for me has changed my life and I love the example of Jesus humbling himself to his creatures.

I mean yeah it was tasteless, but such is life. I don't have the whole sacred cow view of 9/11 as a lot of others. Sure it was terrible when it happened but that was fifteen years, time to move on.
Sacred cow view? Time to move on? Tell that to those of us that lost someone we knew and loved. :mad:

I think you have to come to your own conclusions. I don't really have a desire to tell you what to say. All I did was see your post about mixing people up, having a smile come across my face, not an I told you so or holy than thou smile....just wanted to see what you would do with it. Would you get defensive and aggressive, or would you try to handle it like Jesus did.

This is for KimPetras. The commercial SHOULD be banned from getting aired on TV. That much would be a good start towards trying to make amends for the absurd gaffe that this company made. After some consideration on Yeraza's comment that them getting sued is a bit extreme, I do agree BUT they at least need to make some sort of apology to the general public..

I don't know for sure because I can't hear you or see you. How you think you did is the most important question. Is there something you think you can improve on. In my world, I'm always wondering if I can do things better after they have happened and then I try to remember it for the next time.

There is a lot I could improve on. Jsr and Voldemort have encouraged me to stop bantering with people and to show respect all the time. However, I have this "eye-for-an-eye" mentality where I want to treat people the way they treat others; use their own words and arguments against them. They say the first step is to acknowledge, which I have, but it's proven to be quite a difficult habit to break. It's the immaturity within me.

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

It is super hard to become non defensive. But it is a trait that emotionally intelligent people master. We need more emotionally intelligent people in this world because I'm afraid the emotional dunces far outnumber the smart ones. I think you are well on your way and I'm trying my hardest. Lol

Well, it's fun to watch the show, but it's not worth the time or trouble trying to participate in it.
