A Clan Leader shouldn't be bantering in the Clan forums in my opinion. It just makes them look bad. It is ok for you and I as we are not leaders of Clans.
On the other Site where I am a co-captain, I don't argue with anyone. It is a whole different set up than here. As a co-captain I am able to make challenges. I try to set example by not getting involved in any confrontations, although they are more strict on that Site than on this one, but it takes a lot away from the Site in my opinion.
I think it good for people to have their disagreements so long as it is done in a good way and not be malicious about it. I don't think Clan Leaders should get involved unless it directly involves their own Clan then they should say there piece but not get involved in a back and fort bantering session.

@Arkturos saidPutting words in people's mouths??
If by "No" you mean that she is still full of pride and judgment in a detrimental way -- well, yeah, maybe, but let's see how things go.
Let's give it a few days. Sometimes it takes people a while to digest new information or feedback.
Softly, softly, kindly, kindly.
As for the bit at the end, I'm already glitching now and then. Apologies all around in advance!
...[text shortened]... s me a hypocrite because sometimes perhaps she thinks I come off as more of a Christian than her. 😉
Sounds a bit like.... control.... wouldn't you say?

@mike69 said".... came from one of her churches pride youth services.
This seems to be a little baited to me, as you know the church she attends, her sexual identity and the things I listed came from one of her churches pride youth services. Following politics you would also know her churches fight because because Trump accepted 49 white South African people being persecuted just because of their color.
Stop lying about my church!!
We don't even have "pride youth services"!
Stop lying about my church!

Thank you, and I hope you understand that some lingering, hot bitterness about a certain matter is not directed at you personally.

Boo hoo hoo. Join the club. Every single member of the LGBTQ+ community has endured the exact same "oppressive and inhibiting" criticism.
I've known many members of this community, from every stripe. You are the first person I've ever come across who actively attacks members of the same community. In fact, while I have heard hateful comments from gays about women, you take this to a new low. Just because you are gay, you do not have to hate women. It's not in the "by-laws" or anything. While my preference is women, I do not hate guys. Far from it. I've been bisexual my whole life. It just took me until I became an adult to figure it all out. And I sure as hell do not hate gays. I support them. I opened my home to a gay man who had no where else to go during the covid lockdown. Best roommate I ever had.
In short, I'm asking you to climb right down off my ass in this forum. We should be allies, not enemies.
Please, if you cannot bring yourself to understand my position on an equal footing with your own, you can take your own "oppressive and inhibiting" criticism of me and kindly shove it.
@mike69 saidAnd you cannot see how this is you being a hypocrite.

Just. Stop. Lying. About. My. Church.
I will continue alerting your attacks on my church.
I have religious freedom... just like you.
@Suzianne saidYou are out of your mind!!! what rule says I can’t talk about something I disagree with just like you do in debates and here non stop. Oh I see just because you say it’s an off topic and your friend mods support you not that I’m doing anything wrong. What is wrong with you you really don’t understand the word hypocrite do you!
And you cannot see how this is you being a hypocrite.

@Suzianne saidWhy? Please tell me why all you supposed Christians?
Right?
I basically say the same thing in the Spirituality Forum and everyone, and I mean everyone has a meltdown.
