too bad you feel that way, i mean being repressed about what you believe to the point of fearing to let someone else know. i hate that for you and those who are like that.

And i also hate that you felt as if my reply in particular was a retort. no such thing, kind of like people who brag on the dallas cowboys or labrun james or the lakers. jesus is my superstar and i like being on His team is all.

some people are thinned skinned i realize.

i have talked to white racist atheist who have said some pretty aweful things about Jesus Christ. as a matter of fact there have been a couple of pretty voicetrous and i have not tried to condemn them to the deepest part of shoel. Jesus can take care of Himself, He appointed me to be patient and set an example in both word and deed.

i will turn the cheek (except physically), i ain't gonna take no whipping from no one and would not allow anyone to do that to you if i felt you were being abused. that is the way i am.

i pray that you will be come bolder in speaking your mind regardless of what others think of it.
