A Simple Rule

[robvalue]

I think there may have been some sort of hideous misunderstanding, as I couldn't understand certain comments made about what I had said recently in this thread. So i thought it may help to reflect on it.

When I first posted, I had only read the opening post by DP and when I wrote that I agree with most of this, I meant I agree with what he said. I hadn't read through what everyone else had written first. So I don't know if it was assumed I was advocating something horrible someone else had written.

All I was describing was my evaluation of what moderates say, that's all, and what I would ideally like to happen. I wasn't talking about forcing anyone to do anything.

I still haven't read the rest of the thread, or what was posted since I last made a post here as this whole thing threw me badly and I don't want it to affect me further. But I thought there has probably been a misunderstanding, and this might be why.

If people still think I'm terrible for even having the opinion that all moderates are hypocrites and validate the fundamentalists, then that's up to them.

I realise this all probably sounds ridiculous and I'm throwing some sort of self pity party. That's not the intention, I just wanted to try and sort things out without having to wade through what else might have been said. It's totallly my problem, not anyone elses, that I sometimes take things to heart too much which is why I haven't read any more comments before posting this. I'm taking a break from the forums for a while, as I've been too obsessed lately. I want to thanks everyone though, I've felt part of a great community and felt very welcomed. I'll probably be back after a while.
