In their defense I’m not sure if they knew I was recovering from a miscarriage. Their caricature of me was inaccurate. They seemed to have had me confused with Sarah’s Daughter (something I find hilarious considering how much our opinions differ).

I am not much of a Christian (faith in God doesn’t come easily for everyone), and I am especially not a Fundie. Or a Wiccan. (Actually I suspect a Christian troll accused me of that one, considering how I am disliked by many for doubting Jesus & having faith in horoscopes).

The only time I ever really tussled with FJ snarkers was when they harassed the old sickly (he suffers from Fibromyalgia and Depression) former Baptist pastor-turned-Atheist blogger Bruce Gerescner. They theorized he was some terrible person with dark skeletons in his closet. His blog is positively saccharine (he often posts about spending time with his family and how much he loves his wife), and he is very open about his life as a former Baptist pastor. He wasn’t some Jim Baker-scandal ridden hypocrite kicked out of his church.

“that have been causing mayhem. SSM has had a closed post about the kind of hell she went thru where people threatened to out her (Hah. She uses.her. real. name) AND HER KIDS.”

I do beleive it is illegal (at least in my state) to share images of minors without their guardian’s written consent. “Outing” a child would be misdemeanor.

I think all bloggers have a right to free speech, but it is the lowest of low to bring someone’s children into an argument.

1. Having a miscarriage (again?) is simply awful. I’m sorry for you and Ken, and I hope your health is holding together.
2. There are a bunch of troll (trollettes?) that have been causing mayhem. SSM has had a closed post about the kind of hell she went thru where people threatened to out her (Hah. She uses. her. real. name) AND HER KIDS.

I’m not your husband. So please take this with a kilo of salt. But if someone insulted my beloved when she was in a miscarriage I get ferally angry. And if someone attacks my kids, they will end up bruised and sore.

(I’m vindictive: lawsuits hurt a lot more than fists do)

Oh, and if you think that Christians are righteous and wise — then why did Paul have to write letters telling them to stop being thieves, or incestuous, or lazy, or in other ways worse morally than the pagans around them? Why did he exhort us to good living? For everyone in the commentverse has written hurtful and twitty things.

The fact people have trolled you indicates you are a threat.

Yes. You.

So get your nice Anglican church to gird its loins. For the church that managed to stop slavery in the British Empire can pray for you and protect you, as should we all.

Well, for Millenials the tolerance of sins just leads to doubts. If Christians don’t really think the sins matter, and that God’s word is irrelevant – that’s what’s the point of going to church?

Now to go a bit off topic:

Early in August I experienced a miscarriage at 18 and a half weeks that I am still recovering from 🙁 So I have not been particularly active on the blogosphere for the past few weeks.

Meanwhile in late July I began receiving hatemail from FJ feminists as well as hatemail from Christians who didnt agree with my views, so I locked my blog (I intend to reopen when I feel well enough). Than FJers began posting fake comments pretending to me and making fun of me.

…So in case you were wondering I did not divorce my husband and become a Single Mom feminist Wiccan. (Although I did take up candlemaking. It’s a surprisingly fun hobby)
