behavior before and after demanding and receiving obedience to his demand
that two former employees of Logos School resign after adultery between them

School staff to resign. </FONT></DIV>

have displeased him follow them.</FONT></DIV>

Keely Yaps in:<BR>> “I have several suggestions for what you call
it<BR>> when a supposed Christian acts like a preening<BR>> sixth-grade
bully. You're being an ass, Farris.”<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> We have
now heard from the resident theologian here on Blind 2020. <BR>> Keely,
check out paragraph 3.<BR>> <BR>> I might add that if Pastor Wilson
stopped living in his home, rented <BR>> the whole thing out to students
and moved in with a lady down the <BR>> street you of all people would be
the leader in developing a whole <BR>> campaign of indignation that would
make the Spanish Inquisition look <BR>> like “Who Wants to be a
Millionaire.”<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Carl wrote:<BR>> "I'd personally
call it no one else's business."<BR>> <BR>> And, Sunil wrote:<BR>>
"You've been on this for a couple of weeks now,<BR>> and it's still not
your business, not my business, and<BR>> not the business of anyone on
V2020 except Nick,<BR>> and perhaps his friend, should she exist and
should<BR>> she be on this listserve."<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> And,
Saundra wrote:<BR>> "As usual, Sunil & Carl are spot on, but for the
rest<BR>> of us, let heirdog's post serve as a reminder that<BR>>
Jealousy, the Green-Eyed Monster, really is incredibly<BR>> ugly."<BR>>
<BR>> <BR>> I am very glad that you all are trying to define morality
here on Blind <BR>> 2020 but what standard shall we use to say what is and
isn't some one <BR>> else's business? We all want to participate in the
standard defining <BR>> exercise and we need to be all inclusive so that no
one is left out.<BR>> <BR>> For the longest time I have been posting
statements that some find <BR>> offensive and some find funny. It seems
from this vast difference of <BR>> opinion that there is no moral standard
by which we can judge one and <BR>> other's comments. Saundra calls me
jealous and ugly. How does one make <BR>> an absolute statement such as
thiat?<BR>> <BR>> I have read that some posters have "crossed the line"
when it comes to <BR>> saying things. By what unwritten law or code of
conduct do we judge <BR>> where the line is? And who is the policeman of
"line crossing"? Is it <BR>> J. Ford with her online dictionary? Is it
Wayne Fox and his <BR>> multicolored Bible Google? Or is it Keely Mix with
her cutting wit and <BR>> "I am innocent but you are guilty" way of putting
things.<BR>> <BR>> Tom-Tom says, by his posts and his blog, that it is
OK to re-publish <BR>> the addresses of those he thinks are breaking a
zoning code. Isn't what <BR>> they do in the privacy of their own home only
"their business"? What <BR>> gives him the "right" to do this? Has he
crossed the mystic "line"?<BR>> <BR>> What gives J. " :] " Ford the OK
to publish false or misleading <BR>> information about a local developer,
with the intent to do public harm <BR>> to someone from Christ Church? But
when someone makes an embarrassing <BR>> statement about an ex husband who
resides in the state pen, this has <BR>> crossed the mystic "line"!<BR>>
<BR>> Maybe it's time to shut this site down. Maybe it's time to do what
<BR>> someone, I respect, said, ..."Live and let live". Is this the
standard <BR>> we should follow?<BR>> <BR>> When Dale pointed out the
incongruity of Keely's request, in light of <BR>> all of the accusations by
Rose and Co. with respect to having people <BR>> live in their house, I
thought I would bring up Nick Gier's living <BR>> situation - again. Is he
paying any of the bills there? Wouldn't that <BR>> make him a "boarder" by
the code? He is not a family member.<BR>> <BR>> It seems, by the
comments back to me, that THIS is none of my business! <BR>> Why, he is an
important public school figure with a lot on his plate <BR>> (he told us
so)! Why one set of standards for some and not for others? <BR>> Where is
the out cry "For the Love of the Code?"<BR>> <BR>> Is all of this a
picture of "white men of privilege" being overcome and <BR>> subdued by
those who feel down trodden? Or is it as Mrs. Lund said, " <BR>> a
reminder that Jealousy, the Green-Eyed Monster, really is incredibly <BR>>
ugly..."?<BR>> <BR>> lemeno, Doug!<BR>> <BR></FONT>
