Because we're all family, Tintin dear. 
Seriously though, it boggles my mind how anyone could take YIG in a bad light. He was honest and forthright. He added so much to the threads and in so short a time. I mean, humorous sarcasm runs like a river thru-out the forums, doesn't it? And YIG is a master of tongue-in-cheek humor. His posts made me laugh so much! I don't understand why he in particular was discriminated against because of his satirical comments. I honestly don't.

I've been trying to avoid the BDF because I get too out of sorts with all the harsh debates. So I'm unaware of any squabbles between Magenta & YIG.
Even so, when I first came to this site, I had a hard time fitting in. I got a few pm's for some of the stuff I posted because people weren't familiar with me and I guess they didn't know how to take me. I felt humiliated. I tend to be sarcastic but I've toned it down a lot because some members were offended and angry at me. I had so many people on ignore because it ticked me off that nobody would defend me. I felt like crap.
Well, time and tide.... things are much better now because I finally got the "vibe" of this place. But I cried a lot of tears to God because I felt like a wounded mouse at a cat convention in CC a lot of the time. I learned a lot from that experience. Like dying to myself and forgiveness for others and having mercy on people and being a friend to others. But it took time.
That's all I'm saying. We gotta give each other elbow room and come to the defense of the whole body, not just the ones we're familiar with or the ones we think are more deserving. I'm not talking about trolls who come here just to tear the place apart and make a mockery of God. I'm talking about our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Anyway.... God's in control and will make some good come out of this, I'm sure. He's faithful even when we ain't. Praise God!

I think the big stark difference between me and you is that I am smart enough to know that you and I clash so I don't follow you around on threads and throw rocks at you cuz you rub me wrong. In case you haven't noticed it's been you yourself that has been engaging me. And now you throw this passive aggressive bc at me. Look....heres the deal..... I don't really talk to you about much other than when you directly engage me...and I certainly don't chase you around from thread to thread bringing up other threads to throw in your face. So, why don't you do us both a favor and back off for at least a little while.....clear your head, take stock etc. I think that would help the overall atmosphere of this place if you afforded me the same courtesy I have given you.

Looks like your her next target.
I had to ask her to leave me alone like around 6 times over about a 4 week period before or just around the start of summer.
She actually told me I don't belong here and implied she was going to try and get me thrown off.
When that did not work, she finally put me on ignore.
Thank God.

Oh man, when I read this post yesterday my flesh was like, "YAY! It’s nice to be validated!"
Except I know better in my heart. I was mad as a hornet before I posted my previous messages. I was like Peter drawing the sword when I read the posts targeting our dear brother Yahweh_is_gracious. In fact, I’m naturally like that because of the abuse of my past. There’s not a day goes by that I don’t have to be reminded by God to put my sword down. I die daily to it.
I had to walk away from the computer when the Holy Spirit reminded me that my flesh ain’t mindful of the things of God but the things of man. I was standing at my kitchen sink mulling it all over when the Holy Spirit reminded me I’m not God. The Lord stirred in me that he is still God and has everything under control and that I needed to trust his guidance and not my feelings. And I believed him because my flesh always gets me in trouble.
When I had sufficient time to put to death my angry flesh and surrender my self-righteousness to the Lord, then I sat back down at the computer and wrote from his Spirit in me.
This morning when I woke up, I asked God to explain to me what Paul meant when he said in Romans 5:
[SUP]1 [/SUP]Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
[SUP]2 [/SUP]through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God.
[SUP]3 [/SUP]Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
[SUP]4 [/SUP]perseverance, character; and character, hope.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
[SUP]6 [/SUP]You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
I mean, I understand it to a degree in my intellectual mind. Suffering works patience. Got it! Even the world knows that being patient is a virtue.
But I wanted more than a carnal understanding of the Word of God. I wanted to know… become one with… be intimate with the truth of Christ in that matter. I wanted to be made alive in that truth. Because I hate when my emotions try to control me. It sickens me! It’s death! I wanted to be set free in my heart. And of course, Jesus is faithful to do it.
So here I sit admitting to you folks that there ain’t a darn thing in me that’s godly or good except for Christ ruling in me in spite of my weakness. I ain’t no better than anyone here, and you know in your heart of hearts that’s an absolute fact.
So whatever wonderful thing our dear brother JosephDreams saw in me, wasn’t AuntieAnt at all. It was Christ shining through an anxious, agitated, sword-wielding woman. And this ain’t no attempt to be humble because c’mon, I don’t have a humble bone in my entire carnal body. I’m telling you the truth, I’m rejoicing and boasting about Jesus Christ our Lord because he is able to subdue us like he did the raging storm, he is able to keep us from falling and reign in us his holy temple. He IS our Peace. Our God reigns in his people because he's God and he can do a thing in spite of our weakness!! Hallelujah!!
Lord, we bless your holy name that you are able to keep us all from falling. Thank you for being our faithful, merciful & kind Father. Thank you for giving us a spiritual family that we can all belong and all share in your love, joy and peace. Thank you that you have leveled the playing field and make us all saints in your image, nobody better than another. Amen.
