For those who have been following, but not voicing anything, 1) silence is complicity, and 2) why not?

DDF isn't telegrams... they don't charge to post.
1) Complicity to what? There have been many different and varing opinions espoused here. 2) Not every one is as good at articulating their opinion. (Plus you intimidate me :P)

I see nothing wrong with rejoicing in what happened to this individual. You should also be aware how this affects others of this tragedy. Saying “I don’t care” is hard for me to understand.

If anyone ever seen the movie “Armageddon” there is a scene at the end where everyone is rejoicing for the earth being saved. Then they pan to a girl crying because it was her father that gave his life for that to happen. As AJK has said over and over try and put yourself in her shoes.

You can rejoice in what you see as another validation of your religion but you can also be respectful of others at the same time. 

I agree 1,000,000%

Like I have been saying from the first moment these talks have started, I still believe the timing for the story is just not now if you ask me. I feel it's very insensitive to the families that have not been lucky enough to have been spared. But then again pot your self in there shoes ppl Eben in rough times might be happy someone was spared from this tragedy
If you have any questions please search and then ask. PM me for detailed help.

There's a limit to how many +1s people want to post. Most people feel that if they don't have anything constructive to add to what others are doing a fine job explaining then why should they?

There is power in numbers. ANNNND, the way people throw out +1's round these parts, like their going out of style, I'm shocked people aren't jumping on board :)

1) Complicity to what? There have been many different and varing opinions espoused here. 2) Not every one is as good at articulating their opinion. (Plus you intimidate me :P)

I'm not intimidating... just passionate :)

I'd say complicit in what the majority ARE posting... I feel like I'm a lone voice save a select couple.

Then perhaps you can give Baruch his monthly fee back? He doesn't find this entertaining at all... despite being religious about clicking "refresh" on this thread.
Not the refresh button, but the "show new replies to your posts" - button.  ;)

See? Not two mins after I post, Baruch, the one who finds this thread just so terribly boring is here ready as whip to comment on... nothing of substance.

He's going to need a new F5 key.

The thread is not boring. The conversation about openmindedness was annoying. And your posts are insightless.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Dude, in case you haven't been paying attention (and everyone knows you have), 80% of this thread has been about that exact topic.

So either stop trolling or stop clicking refresh like a madman.
