This thread is dedicated to dlw and Tigress....and whatever is budding between you. You can have this thread and I'll start another one, no hard feelings.

play on,
adiaphora

I'm a big softie, but I'm not sure what ataraxia's style is. You might want to be more sensitive about which threads you pick to be your playgrounds.

Goodbye.

God bless.

And, just as a suggestion, I have found that on TheoWeb the starter of a thread has the right to request those whose posts on a thread are off-topic to continue their off-topic posting elsewhere. Of course this right works on the basis that all accept it and it is occasionally enforced by moderators...

Niebuhr thought that sustained moral energy in politics depended on religion's power to mobilize reason along with self-transcending love. The prophetic tradition, meanwhile, gave Jews and Christians some protection against the temptation to identify their social causes with God's will. Lincoln's second inaugural address expressed the prophetic insight, "The almighty has His own purposes."

adiaphora-

Heartfelt thanks for your years of hard work, kind guidance, and, when needed, tough love. We all owe you a debt of gratitude. We love your making this site possible.

To Tigress and DLW-

I've never read a more ridiculous conversation in a more inappropriate setting. adiaphora is saying good-bye and you two are playing tag. Grow up.

TGB,
I deleted my posts although I don't feel the need to apologize as I believe your anger at DLW and I was wrong. He and I were just joking around. I don't see how that's such a terrible thing. I don't and didn't know Adiaphora well at all, so her leaving is not as hard for me to handle as it apparently is for you. I'm sorry to Adiaphora though if she felt hurt by my humor during this time.

Tigress-

I'm not angry at all. Just didn't think this was the time or place to party. You don't have to know adiaphora well at all to know that a farwell speech from someone who has served as moderator for three years isn't the place to goof off. Maybe I'm old fashioned.

adiaphora-

Sorry. I couldn't not say something (Gee, is that a 'counterfactual'? Wink). If I were you I'd wipe out all our responses thus far and let us start over again so you can print this thread out and stick it on your frig for momory's sake. Go ahead, wipe us out! I know you want to. Go on. One last push of the delete button as moderator. Do it, do it, do it! Evil

Eew,

now I'm going to have to demand that the entire thread be removed...

Adiaphora,
You really didn't need to do this. It wasn't one of my finer hours. Blush And none of my responses to DLW are in this thread anymore, anyhow since I deleted them all. But thanks anyway.
