The Fool
« on: April 01, 2012, 11:21:36 am »
Psalm 14:1
New International Version (NIV)
Psalm 14
For the director of music. Of David.
1 The fool says in his heart,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, their deeds are vile;
there is no one who does good.

Psalm 14:1

Who is more the "fool"; one who posts off topic religious stuff in the "Payments" forum when they should know better by now, (as in someone who has been around long enough to post 805 times), or someone who blindly has faith in such religious superstitions? <--trick question since in this instance, the rhetorical answer is "both".

Posting off topic subjects in the Payments forum isn't illegal, it's just foolishly ignorant.
One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.

No doubt it was merely some sort of 'cosmic coincidence' that my young niece pulled the cord on her Speak 'n Spell right at the moment I clicked on this thread and it said, "and the sheep goes bah-bah-bah".  Yep, that's the ticket.

Or maybe this person just doesn't give a *bleep* on how/when/where/why in the area/topic concerning posting rules.Who's too busy in real life worries to worry about petty issues such as this time waster.  I agree, I 'm guilty for responding but think about the energy we've wasted daily on this petty stuff that maybe able to light & run cities for years!  ;D :thumbsup: :wave: :peace:

 ??? What is with the members who become so agitated about someone posting in the wrong thread or whatever.  Wow what a terrible thing lol.  And to the person who listed this psalm - thanks I enjoyed reading it.  And to the person who says religious superstition, well maybe I'll leave that one alone.   :peace: :heart: :peace: :heart: :wave:

A counter question; what does superstitious religious belief posted under the "Payments" forum have to do with payments?

It wasn't "positive", it was superstitious nonsense, (in that it contained no 'sense'/reason). <-- sardonic commentary

this comes up all the time and the bottom line is people just don't care enough to pay attention. they don't care enough about others using the forum to locvate legitimate information in the correct places. They don't care about Admins that may have to waste their time cleaning up the posts and they certainly don't care enough or have enough self esteem to present themselves in a better light. It is sad but that is just the way the world is today. It is too bad that so many don't pay attention because it does create a lot of wasted time both in others commenting on the lack of respect and in particular for newbies who are seeking answers and guidance as to how to sincerely learn more about the site an how it functions. Normally most sites like this don't even have an open off topic area, it is just a shame that even though it is at the top of the headers it gets overlooked on a pretty regular basis. It should not take more than 20 to 30 seconds to stop and think about what you have to say and see if it is in the correct thread. The thread appears above where we are writing our comments so there are basically two ways to verify that one is on the right track. There again, the lack of concern, respect and self esteem puts one in a poor light. And unfortunately the rest of us can fuss or not fuss it will never change. So we can choose to live with it, ignore it or keep complaining about it but it will always be with us.

Either that or Ron White's observation was dead-on, (he'd said, "you can't fix stupid").

Who's too busy in real life worries to worry about petty issues such as this time waster.  I agree, I 'm guilty for responding but think about the energy we've wasted daily on this petty stuff that maybe able to light & run cities for years!  ;D :thumbsup: :wave: :peace:

If they've got the time to waste in wasting everyone else's time, I've can spare a moment to log their disregard for others.

I generally concur with your observations however, am unwilling to let such apathy by the ignorant pass without comment.
Depending upon the level of attention objections to to such apathetic posting draws for "clogging up" Admin's foums with such clutter, the thread may get moved to where a moderator judges it goes, (like d+d, where the offender may be 'debated & discussed' relentlessly), or the offender may be warned/banned by Admin for spamming across forums.
