Response to Spammers

Constructive comments & Critiques welcome, personal attacks are not. Learn the difference, take care.

I am curious to know, why do some people BOTHER commenting on articles if all they will do is attack the message? If you don’t have anything CONSTRUCTIVE to say, then please do not waste comment space by leaving spam. I would be more than open to comments but saying something like “this article is trash” is nothing but berating, and that is in no way productive.

I understand that you may not AGREE with what is written, but if you don’t, then be constructive in your critiques. No one is forcing you to click the link, if the only reason you are clicking it is to attack me or my readers, feel free to take your hate elsewhere, thanks.

I had fully intended to take a rest from writing, but I felt the need to respond to the spammers. Some people I know although we disagree at least add to the conversation rather than leaving personal attacks.

All Spam will be deleted, If you want to call that “censorship” fine, but just as you would not want someone coming to your home berating you and your loved ones, I will not tolerate those that want to berate me or my readers, personal attacks are not the same as constructive critique, constructive critique is more than welcome.

    I agree John. Just write with passion as you do and the passionate mind will find your writing inspirational. Like it! I’ll never spam you.

    I have never understood the motivation to seek out articles with Christian content just so they can critisize our belief? It is like when a pastor moved onto our street and people began to watch him to see if he would do something wrong. I remember one neighbour telling my parents how rude the pastor was – she had waved at him and he didn’t wave back. She certainly wasn’t going to his church anytime soon, with such a rude pastor.

    You will always have opposition when you speak the truth. It is our God that they want silenced – they don’t know that if we stop teaching in the name of Christ, the rocks will cry out.

    Those people who just want to bother, the more you complain of them the more they will enjoy bothering.
