Oh,please don't teach... Oh,leaders.... Killing enemies is the good thing...? Killing each other is the great thing..? Don't teach.. . You're on God's side and others are on Satan's side...? Consider each other as Devil side..? You'll go to Heaven,and they'll fall to Hell..?. Oh!don't teach them. Your God is so narrow? Your God is only yours? Will God glad to see killing each other? God loves the fighting? Oh,please don't think so!! Let's join our hands,Peace lovers!! Let's pray together,God lovers!! Our God is everybody's God. God will stand on all religions. There are ways to Heaven through all religions. Oh,please don't fight under God's name. Oh,please don't teach hatred and revenge. All we need is the One Peaceful world under common God. The world helping each other,supporting each other as same valuable God's children. So please don't fight by using God's name...!! Yuka S. April,1 2003 P.S. (I won't post on US site where one moderator will glad to check my wrong grammer)  |

yukas, your poem is very heartfelt and powerful; it touched me very much. Thank you very, very much for sharing this part of your feelings with us.
(And please, please don't worry about any grammar/linguistic criticism - what matters most, in my opinion, are feelings expressed straight from the heart...)

Yukas, that is so beautiful. I love it... You really have a way with words and the fact that English is not your first language makes the poem even more touching. No, I would not advise you to post it at the US Site unless you want to be attacked. Such peaceful sentiments aren't so popular everywhere, even if they are the best sentiments. Your poem has a healing quality. I am going to ask you first to see if it is okay. Can I copy it and put it in a forum I am active in? It is something that needs to be shared with others and this particular forum is one of the largest ones. It gets thousands of hits each day. I know they will love it. I will tell them that my friend from Japan, Yukas, wrote it.  Love, A'isha |

Yukas, Hello! I haven't seen you post in awhile! I was wondering where you've been! Thank you for the heartfelt poem! I feel the same way. I rarely post on the US site either. I posted there just recently because people were attacking Vivian's poem. It was fine to discuss her poem, but I thought that some were cruel and unnecessary. Don't let the cruel remarks of some members make hurt your feelings. What counts is what's in your heart and your heart is very kind! I appreciate your thoughts! _____________ Vivian, I am sorry if my post on the US site may have messed up your poetry thread. I was just so sick of seeing this happen every time I visit that site. I couldn't understand why members didn't think that it matters what a moderator posts. I feel that they should be held accountable for what they contribute to the essence of a website. I'll hold my tongue next time.  Peace, Faithfullight |

Yukas, I like the seniment in your poem. This is one of the horrible things about this war, the rhetoric of my God vs your God. Let us re fight the Old Testament. Yech.
If you believe in what you say you should allow it open for review to more people. If you fear their input, or have not the energy to deal with it, that is your desicion, not their failing.
I would like to suggest something. Instead of taking pot shots at Nate over here, try to learn the positive from what he says. In fact you might be amazed how he would reply if you PMed him with the poem asking his editorial input. It puts both of you on an adult footing.
Umm, Faithfullight, you said you had nothing against Nate's post except that he was a moderator. We went over this when they were elected, that they were to keep their roles separate. Nate worried about this from the begining. I told him he could manage to keep his roles separate and urged him to keep posting. His is a voice I greatly value because he thinks and does not just gush platitudes.
Funny how this topic sigs in with one I am having on the individuals obligation to interpret scripture, and life really, for themselves.
Peace to you all, (and that does not mean a lack of opinions)
Turan

Yukas, do they still have a poetry thread at the US website? Maybe you can post it there. I think starting a thread with it could start a war. I know that some discussions start fights there.
Now, getting off of the subject of the over discussed antics of the US site I want to direct the attention back to Yukas' poem.... I just posted it at a couple of sites I go to Yukas. I will send you the responses when they start coming. I know they will be positive.
Love,
A'isha

"We went over this when they were elected, that they were to keep their roles separate." (Turan)
Turan,
I was not involved with the elections or the happenings at CS.com at that time of choosing moderators and discussing that forum's rules. But, coming from a person who rarely reads from that forum, is as a new potential poster who reads those threads and chooses whether to become a member or not. To me, if beneath a member's name says "moderator", then I view them as a moderator for the site at all times, regardless of what the forum says in their content of rules. If the moderators are to be part-time, in-and-out moderator, then the title should reflect this. I don't understand why you do not understand my point? I don't have an issue with Nate, but if he is stating his feelings not as a moderator, then he should not carry the title in his post.

I really don't see where this is the place to discuss a moderator (or politics) from another website.

I am trying to convince her to install a "Reprimand A'isha" button on these boards. (I give her the most grief.) I don't think we can find any complaints about our moderator though. Love, A'isha |

Faithfullight,
I only participate in 6 discussion forums, all of which have moderators. In all of them the moderators differentiate between posting as themselves and then separately in their role as moderator. So no, I do not understand where you are coming from at all.
Christine, I hope that was within the bounds of your post. I will leave the subject now.
Another Yukas gem- -
He is a blue rose.
Beautiful but not yet red.
Want to cherish
But afraid to touch his thorns.
