StG, don't respond to ExChurchKid. Don't read her. Go easy on the LC-speak.
We need to speak the same language...plain English.

Okay. Thanks. Sounds good to me. I've not responded to a whole bunch of things for the reasons you cite - because it's obvious effective communication is not happening. This often happens when emotions are heightened. After all these years, I'm continuing to learn to take a break before responding, when things get a little "hot." However, I'm also being called out for NOT responding - seems I'm being an irritant either way!
And regarding the "LC speak" thing, I must say I'm not even aware of that in my words. This may be because for 20+ years I've been involved with what could be termed an exLC splinter group. I have a brother here, who was with the LC in the 60s, but hasn't been since, and he sometimes gets after me for LC speak too!
I'll try to watch that, but again, it's hard for me to recognize.
If someone could let me know when this is occuring, I'm certainly open to hearing it. (and please provide a suggestion as to how something might have been better worded . . .)
Thanks again for your efforts to reset this mess - it is appreciated!
