You may not mean to, but the way you write comes across in a very negative, 'i speak the truth, you all know sh*t ' kind of way

Im not saying you are, but you often come across as a religious dictator

Hmmm u say this as if i do it on a regular basis. I know that this post would come across as aggressive, which is why I apologised in the first place. AFAIK though, other times I believe i can maintain a friendly, non-patronising religious discussion.

Please, feel free to mention some other times when i've come out, guns blazing, as a "eligious dictator"

But can you explain me one thing please?
Why did you say that quoting my post?
I said my thoughts as comment to thread, I didnt quote you, I didnt refer to anything of what you said...
So why were you talking to me?

Sorry if I sounded like I was targeting you, i just looked for any post that didn't expressly state: "REMEMBER, THIS IS JUST MY OPINION", because that's what some people seem to expect.

Read the article- it says authorities declined to disclose.

Well but since you knew him I thought you might know.

Don't take this the wrong way, but no, you can't maintain a friendly, non-patronising religious discussion. I've seen you try too many times and fail.

Look, what Paul is asking, isn't that big a thing to ask, in fact, I think it's more than reasonable. You speak in absolutes, whereas everyone speaks from personal opinion, and their writing style and choice of words reflects that. When you say things like, "Our lives, which were purchased at the price of God's only Son, are not for us to throw away whenever we feel like it." That pisses me off, and it clearly didn't sit very well with Paul either. You have to realise that a lot of peoplee believe very differently to you and will not take kindly to your impositions. Maybe I need to be more clear: You have to say things like, "I think", or "IMO", or "In my experience." That way, it softens the point you are trying to make.

Exactly Ian.

I too was pissed of by the way he wrote that.

uhmmm, damn I really wanted to reply... but you said it all... bastard!

 

[Martin]

gray, I think what Ian said is reasonable

There have been a lot of interesting points of view here, in particular Paul's have caught my eye.

:LOL:I think that's the first time you've characterized any of my posts here as reasonable....I feel honoured.

 

[Martin]

Either your style has evolved or my opinion has changed cause I find a lot of them reasonable these days.

 

[Anders]

Stop doing those drugs Martin... I'm telling you, it's bad for you. You might find yourself agreeing with me someday

For me suicide is like quitting. Really, things could get well- you never know- and you just quit. Yes, its your choice, but for me, its a wrong choice.

Sorry if I sound too harsh, that's just my unimportant opinion

 

[gray]

I don't think many people noticed that I was well aware that the offending post would be more aggressive than most.

Please point me in the relevant direction, a link would be nice

That's a serious request, I'm not saying that there are no such incidences, but it'd be helpful to go through what i've said in the past.

I guess I wasn't really trying to soften my point at all, because i feel so strongly about the topic...hence the initial disclaimer (which evidently went largely ignored).

I kinda knew that I was being very imposing and narrow-minded in this particular instance, but I was just dismayed at the lax way in which people view life.

Anyway, I learn from my mistakes, and i'll think a little more before I post.

Cheers, and apologies to those who were offended

p.s. If i were to try and make up an excuse, it would be that i'm getting more fired up and intense, since i'm headed off on a mission trip in 2 sleeps.

Hey Josh, that's a real sad thing to happen.
My sincerest condolences.
Hang in there. Time heals all.

And one thing about families and friends: I've never heard about anyone, who would commit suicide, if they had loving family and friends, really good friends.

That's an insult to everyone who's ever lost a close friend or relative to suicide Vit. :wth:

Any thoughts on suicide?

Philosophical? Theological? Practical?

i've commited suicide few times.

have thought of it,endless times.


but now,after fullfiling my bigest dream,
i feel that i have to live longer to live even more things.

but many times i have thoughts of how would it like to be dead.
i am curious to see how am i going to feel as dead.
but i am also afraid of losing my loving ppl and i will never see juve again.

An insult?

I would say, that this is the cruel and inconvenient truth.

i was just jokin' around dude Okay, so i shouldn't joke around about this kind of stuff.

I'm sorry to hear that Lili, but i'm glad to know that you're over that phase now.

As for being dead... i don't think it's worth speeding up the process... because that's the one thing that you have a guarantee of experiencing...

well,
you know,
it's not that you shouldn't be joking about these stuff,
that was the worse period of my life.
i had reached the bottom then.

and it;s just me that i can not find it funny cause i've been through it.

but i am still curious.
and i am also curious to see how the ppl who know me would react on my death.
and generally,anyone who know me.
how they would react.
