Peace Jack,
I personally haven't learned anything from the exchanges between Carrot and 357. Perhaps I haven't been understanding, but it does feel a little bit like they are having a go at each other. Anyway, my bad. As a non Arabic speaking person, I am keen to learn whether the abstinence is from food, because, of course, in every English Koran, it tells you to abstain from eating and drinking.
Dawn.
So, because you personally haven't learnt anything from the exchanges it becomes
incredibly unhealthy and a waste of energy? I found your post to be
incredibly annoying. Was that a bit harsh? Sorry. I should also leave this without any reasoning as to why I found it
incredibly annoying.
Since that's not me, here goes...
a) Feeling a little bit like others are having a go at each other is no reason to jump in and call the exchange
incredibly unhealthy and a waste of energy. Especially since you admit to a possibility of not understanding. Ask for clarification please.
b) Leaving a comment such as that without any qualifying statements is running the risk of inviting a 'what the heck is her problem' from the people it is directed to amongst other thoughts. Especially if they don't know the poster leaving such a hit and run
and when they haven't participated in the thread or know the posters and their histories previously.
c) Most people reading this would realise there was an issue with what 357 brought up. It has since been relatively clarified to those who understand what the implications were amongst other things, which includes me and apparently 357 learnt something, whatever it was. If you didn't get this, should've asked instead of calling it
incredibly unhealthy, a waste of energy and lacking in clarity.
d) If we
are having a little bit of a go at each other, dude what is it to you that bothers you so much that you had to hit and run calling it incredibly unhealthy and a waste of energy? I know the guy for 7 years, I'm allowed to have a go at him and vice versa...it's my earned right!
It's not as if I'm calling him foul names or whatever which would warrant an incredibly unhealthy label plus a waste of energy. Why should you to tell me how to use my energy anyways? If you must, make sure it involves light sabers or else I'm going to be
incredibly annoyed again.
e) Forget it. I could go on mind you, since I'm
incredibly annoyed.
Next time, either just ask for clarification or read another thread please that's more suited to what you want to read/see.
And before anyone says it (I know who you are): yes, I'm done with my rant.
