Pointers for PP's "Deconversion from Mo-ism" Missi

PP-
As of late, you have been even more rude to Church members than normal. You have been especially rude to those of us who are "on the cusp", if you will.
As Bond stated so eloquently on another thread,
Remember the old saying, "you can get more bees with honey than vinegar"? There's truth to that, my friend.
I know that I, and others, would be much more apt to engage you in conversation if you dropped the abrasive nature.
If you attack me, my family, or my parenting skills, then my attitude is going to be, "the hell with his viewpoints...he is attacking me and I'm going to defend myself."
Just food for thought.

It's obvious these are not TBM people who are completely blinded by faith. They're doing the best they can. They simply don't want to lose the family connections that some people are willing to.
