Blossom Posted February 28, 2011 Author Posted February 28, 2011 I'm curious, are you RLDS or COC?Cause, this is not something ANY mormon I've ever known would say....It's a backhanded disrespectful slam against the Bible as well as the rest of Christianity.And since LDS fully embrace the Bible, including the non-JST parts, this is simply so wrong on so many levels.So, I'm curious the reason for such a comment?I just meant that the JST was better for me.I've never been accused of slamming Christianity or the Bible before now. I apologize, I didn't realize I was so mean and slamming and disrespectful.Gotta say, I came here to learn, and I did. Ouch. I am sorry.Take care folks, and try to be good to each other. Blossom
Calm Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Update.My friend passed last night while in jail. February 27, 2011. She was only 64 years old.I am beyond help and haven't slept much.Thank you all for your help and support. I do so appreciate you all. Her guardian called me asking for money to cremate her. That is how I found out. I am just not in a mood to talk but wanted to let you all know.Yes, I'll pay for the cremation. Blessings,BlossomJust remember that she will be able to take even that short friendship with her as a treasured memory as she moves into her next stage in life, one that hopefully won't carry the same burden of mental disorder for very long if at all, a life where she can understand the kindness and care you and others have shown her in ways that she couldn't before and through that learn more of God's love so that she'll be eager to meet her new friends and family and Father when she gets 'home.'
Somebodyz Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Sorry for your loss Blossom. The guardian, has a cheek, after not letting you see your friend....but I'm glad you are not letting it stop you from helping. Sending hugs.

BlossomQuestions are not accusations. I'm simply "efficient" in that if it was a slam I explained the issue of it.I asked the question because some RLDS/COC's would say that because they don't use the KJV, but instead substitute it for the JST. Thus I was trying to clarify if that was your "intent". But, you've clarified and answered that you like it, hence the reason why you made the comment, so then that would be your answer. No issue then. It was just a curious comment in a post full of issues related to the individual in question, thus seemed potentially out of place.Anyway, sorry for your loss and issues, wish you well.
Jigglysaint Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 That person must have been very lucky to have met a person like you in her final weeks. Very sorry for your loss.
Blossom Posted March 4, 2011 Author Posted March 4, 2011 Oh wow....stuff hurts. I wish I could have known her better, but now she is gone and oh boy this hurts.Guess i better close this part of me and go on. Ouch.I guess i could have done differently for her but I don't know what I could do to keep her here. Maybe God understood something and perhaps needed her to not be with us right now. He knows best.Blessings,Blossom
