Who knows but I'm not able to respond to the posts as I don't read them from a Jewish perspective. As I am not of that Religion. So I think different. I am different. Is something wrong with not be Jewish? If so that is discrimination Phillipa

I pretty much stay away from babble because of it's format and the lack of activity and yes, Lou of course. Mental health affects everyone, including Christians and every faith under the sun I'm sure. I just wish he'd stay away. I don't think he's helping anyone!

> LaneyL,
What you have written about me here could induce hostile and disagreeable and disparaging feelings and opinions against me ,and decrease the respect, regard and confidence in which I am held. This is because you have not posted a citation to specify what it is about me here that makes you want to stay away from here because of me. Then readers could think that it is *anything* about me that makes you want to stay away because of me. This could be that I post concerning how one can be released from the captivity from addiction and depression by divine accomplishment as revealed to me from a Jewish perspective. You also do not state why you wish I would stay away. This could stigmatize me an IMHO cause hatred to be induced in a sub set of people here to hate me and other Jews and act out their hatred so that I and other Jews could become a victim of anti-Semitic violence. If you could post your reasons for what you wrote about me here, then others could make up their own minds about what it is if they can see it. And I could also have the opportunity to respond to you and show the context of whatever you write about me.

I really don't think this is a question of Jewishness whatsoever.
From what I read, Lou thinks he's being accused of driving Scott away from.
From what I infer, that suggests that Lou probably does have something to do with why Scott hasn't posted recently-- a fact that I have noticed and been concerned about.
If this is so-- and Scott's disappearance has anything to do with his exchanges with Lou, or with Lou's behavior here, or with Admin's unwillingness to limit Lou's acting out here-- I would very much like to know.
I am really disturbed to find that the one person's negative influence can, like the butterfly effect, move through an entire message board so as to be toxic on such a level.

> WillfulW,
What you wrote about me could induce hostile, disagreeable and disparaging opinions and feelings against me and decrease the respect, regard and confidence in which I am held. This is because there is not a citation of a URL of what you say is a negative influence and be toxic on such a level. This then can lead others to think of a lot of things as what you wrote about me which opens the door to speculation. This could stigmatize me and arouse anti-Semitic feelings if the reader thinks that what is the *negative influence* could be my postings to save lives and prevent life-ruining conditions and addictions from a Jewish perspective as revealed to me. In particular, but not limited to, my recent posting concerning a new heart and a new spirit that comes from the scriptures that the Jews use as in Ezekiel 36:26-28 that I recently posted here.
If you could post a URL that you use to substantiate what you write about me here, then readers could make their own decision as to if what you write about me here is true or not and I could respond to you and show the context that whatever you post about me here is in.

P,
What you wrote that readers could think is about me could induce hostile and disagreeable opinions and feelings against me and decrease the respect and confidence in which I am held. This is because there is not a reason cited by you, as to what I have posted, for the people that you say have left, and it could be thought by a subset of people that they left because of my postings here. This could mean that readers could speculate that the postings of mine from a Jewish perspective as revealed to me is why they left. This could cause me to be stigmatized and put me and other Jews in a false light, for I post here like others and abide by the prohibitions to me by Mr Hsiung and the rules as any other human being can try to do. If you could post what you use to substantiate what it is by a URL of a post from me that you use in your writing about me here, then readers could make their own determination as to what you say about me is true or not and I could respond to you and show the context.

h_p
What you wrote could cause ill will toward me. This is because there is not a person named, or what the content is that you clam is ridiculous. This could cause others to think that I, and maybe another, could be doing something that is ridiculous. If you could identify what you want readers to focus on with a URL, then I could respond accordingly.

P,
You asked what a Jewish perspective is. This is how a Jew views life and we start with the first statement in the scriptures that the Jews use in the book called Genesis, which states:In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth.
That perspective is only the start. But the statement says much more than can be seen. For that there is a God that creates, then there could be a reason for this creation of the heavens and the Earth. And in that same book, it is written that God made man in his image, and breathed the breath of life into him, which now gives more meaning to the creation. Now we have life. And later in that same book death came into the world.
I am here to reveal to you the mysteries to how you can overcome death, and be free from the shackles of depression and addiction. I am prevented from posting here how that could be done due to the prohibitions posted to m here by Mr. Hsiung.

I feel grateful that Babble's had a great run and survived to old age. And given that, I guess it isn't surprising that there's anxiety about the future.
I'm OK with a smaller and more dedicated group. Anybody else?

> BobWhat I see of the "smaller and dedicated group" currently posting on this board is not supportive, but combative. It's like Posters v.Lou, Lou v. Posters, Posters v. Bob and Bob v. Posters by answering questions with questions.
I always knew posting here was just a written form of a rodent running a maze, but darn it once and awhile the treat at the end of it was mentally nourishing.
I hope you can save Psychology and Social. I miss the support I used to receive and offer to others.

Hi Bob,I accept things as they are and choose to dwell on the positive possibilities, so I'm copasetic with whatever group size Babble is offering these days. I don't visit often (busy family life), but it's comforting to know that you and Babble are here. I think of Babble as a imperfectly perfect and unique place that's evolving on its own journey. And it's OK.
I hope you are OK and enjoying the last days of summer. :)

P.S. Congratulations on Dr-Bob.Org's 15 years! Quite amazing, considering most restaurants close within their first year and average life span being 5 years for those that make the first year mark. :)

Thank you for posting that SLS had taken a break - I didn't know that, but it helped me to know. I had been wondering what was up with him. I hope he is having a pleasant holiday, too, and look forward to his return.

You mean 'doing nothing' in the sense of refraining from making positive posts. Not in the sense of refraining from posting negative posts about posts they consider to be negative - right?
