[m1*]

I have had several people contacting me -- asking me why I left, so I have come back to provide clarification. I've read over this thread. No, I did not leave because of anything to do with "religious or religious debates". Although, I will say that I can't work out why so many people became abusive for the views I have on the topic -- and why it has been allowed by the moderators. It was entirely unnecessary. Before I said goodbye, I made it perfectly clear that I had no interest in religious debates. The comments I made on "religion" and the "Bible" were "responses". I was trying to clarify my views - not preach. The reason I said goodbye was primarily because of the utter, unfettered rudeness and abuse from other members. I have better things to do that pay a forum to be abused. If it weren't for the fact that just about EVERY response to me became abuse, I would not have said goodbye. It's all that simple really.

My full intention was to be a conscructive member - and that's what I endeavoured to do. That is why I joined -- because I am interested in all the topic here and I was looking for a place online where I might be able to "be me". The vast majority of my posts had absolutely nothing to do with religion whatsoever (or what the M1* detractors "deem" as "religion"). They were more about my experiences and also about UFO's (which I took the time to upload pictures of). Yes, I did post a dream that I had where in the dream I said "Jesus is Lord", and yes I did become involved in Beren's "Bible Question" thread -- however, I was not abusive toward anyone. If you take the time to look over all of my threads, you will see that I endeavored to be constructive. I gave many lengthy responses to other peoples threads. So when I was rudely accused of only making my own threads, I was shattered.

I was extremely polite to all those who were respectful and mature. I got "slightly" peeved (and maybe a little sarcastic) with the abusive responses, but I did not return it. I didn't out and out abuse people like I was abused. I just tried to explain who I am and what I believe - to alleviate confusion, and try to demonstrate that although I DO read the Bible and believe that Jesus is Lord, that I did not com here to spread "religion". Those who have decided to beat on me still do not understand what my Biblical views actually are. Just the mention of "Bib;e" and "Jesus is Lord" is enough to convict me of being a religious nut, according to some here. I've said many times: It's very unfair. I tried to "explain" the difference between faith and religion, but according to some here -- if you declare that Jesus is Lord, you're religious and that's that -- and deserve every bit of abuse thrown at you. This is a situation I cannot change and I realise that, so I am not going to stick around here and defend myself against abuse for another month. My decision to say goodbye was simply logical, albeit, one of dismay. Of course I am upset - I didn't WANT to leave, but I have no choice. I became forums "religious kick bag", and no matter what I said -- the more I said, the more abuse I invited. I just gave up. Look, I KNOW a lot of you have been hurt by "religion" but you should NOT have taken that out on ME!

It is when the abuse started to follow me around on other utterly unrelated threads that I decided: "Ok, I'm off it! There's no point in me being here any longer" -- so I maturely wished everyone my love and said goodbye. It is rather ironic to see the behavior of those who have responded to this thread. As a person who had been reading the forums and watching Project Camelot since some of the very first videos, I became interested in joining the community. I would dearly like to have stayed, and contributed -- but it seems that I have attracted a small group of Bible haters and as long as I am here posting, each and every one of my topics will become a launch pad for abuse -- and I KNOW human nature: MORE "will" jump on that bandwagon. It's a snowball. I've seen it before. Just look at the responses to this thread. See, people are "relieved" that I am gone. Tango (who flat out abused me while I was here, trying to be constructive) is doing victory dances; and he's getting PRAISE and THANK YOU'S -- It's just sad..

This is the only reason I said goodbye. Looking over this thread, I see I did the right thing. I didn't encourage this thread. I wasn't even HERE; but look at it!Again (to explain why during the last few days most of my posts were about "religion" - it's not because I CAME HERE to talk about religion. I was just trying to "maturely" explain my position and what it is that I DO believe, because of ignorant accusations (based on stereotypes) which were not true. Without the abuse, the whole subject would have just moved along like any other subject and tomorrow I would have been talking about something else. The only reason I kept responding to the accusations of me being "religious" and having some sort of "secret mission" to come here and "preach" -- is because it just wasn't true. I was just trying to explain "that", which made it appear as if I was always talking about "religion". Yes, I do read the Bible and yes, I do declare that "Jesus is Lord", but I should be able to say so, without attracting a bandwagon of hateful abuse -- while the moderators allow it, and even encourage it by giving "thumps up" to those who declare that I am religious and insist I don't "beat people over the head with a Bible" (which I NEVER DID on this forum, so the comments were uncalled for).

I know that once again, what I have written here will NOT be understood by those who want to have a religious debate and will say that this WHOLE response is because I want to spread "religion", but again - let me say: That is not true. All I can ask, is that from now on, if someone comes here and says they read the Bible and if they mention the Bible and if the personally believe that Jesus is Lord - then unless they're personally attacking you or your beliefs, you should just allow them to say what they believe -- not make post after post with some silly accusation of having "codes" in their name and thanking mods for (for what ever it is, I don't know) keeping on top of me? I don't know I'm just shaking my head..

I COULD go over at least a dozen accusations and abusive comments, such as "I am copying and pasting from other forums", "I have a code name", "I am here to preach a religion", "i am here to attack people", "I only post about religion", "I only post about MY dreams" (ie: 2 posts out of almost 200) etc.. and explain why it's all lies. But I wont. Just rest assured that this is why I have decided to go and find something else to do. Just: Congratulations, you got rid of "Bible Boy". Continue the celebration. Whoever kicks me in the back the hardest as I turn around gets 5 stars..

If I do NOT leave now, I can tell you what will happen: The "Beat on Bible Boy" bandwagon will grow (regardless of whether I mention the Bible ONCE MORE, because I am now KNOWN to be someone who declares Jesus as Lord) and I WILL wind up banned (for one reason or another) as I try to (constantly) explain to those ignorant people why I am not religious. This is why I cannot post on forums full of "New Age" type people - because a LARGE potion of them not only don't like the Bible - they HATE it and WILL attack anyone who mentions it one too many times. They're like pit-bulls too. They DO NOT let go.

I do not belong here. It has been made perfectly clear - and I accept it. So I am leaving. Be happy. However, I will NOT be going to a "BIBLE" forum either (as I was constantly asked to do - which is quite rude), because as I stated, I am {{{not}}} religious. I can do without joining websites by religious people who are merely after donations. I just plain out don't fit anywhere. I'll just go and continue my research by myself.. The thing is NO ONE knows, it took the time to understand what it is I DO believe - or WHY I believe it. Still no one knows. I wish people here could have got to know me better, but it will never be allowed. I was just getting STARTED on the things that I have experienced. I have MORE photos and MORE to say.

"Love and Light" Pffft' - All talk.. The basic theory behind me saying goodbye is just to save everyone the grief of me hanging around here, sharing views that are partially based on what I have read in the Bible -- which are not welcome. I do believe that I have a lot of knowledge and life experience that is useful, but as long as I am "Bible Boy" I will never be allowed to "be me" on this forum and if I can't "BE ME" without getting abused, I will NOT pretend to be someone else just so I can attract pats on the back and "friends" as was insisted by one person. I could go back over this thread and post my views on the comments, but the thread would turn into an all out brawl and would be closed. I'll save everyone the grief of that too.

Once again. Goodbye. I leave in peace.
