This was part of a IM i had received after i answered a question with the best of my knowledge regarding what someone thought was a contradiction(which many things can be seen that way) I understand people feel passionate about their beliefs but when you take that passion across a line which i believe this did then you gain nothing and no one learns anything. Judging one by another's actions is plan wrong no matter what faith/religion or lack of you believe in. You can teach and learn more by showing respect to what one believes (even if you don't agree) then you can by being flat out rude, inconsiderate, close-mined, and judgmental. I may not agree with what people believe but i do try my best to listen and respect their beliefs.
To the one who wrote this i am sorry you feel so harshly against someone you don't even know. I ask you forgive me for whatever wrong doing i did unknowingly against you. I am sorry.

You're a nice guy. Don't always take offense to what people say. If you check out my answers, I'm VERY oppinionated about some things and I sometimes get harsh feedback, but that's just the way it works. If you are being respectful and still get rough feedback, don't worry about, stick to what you believe in.

I would not worry about it, if you told the truth and the truth hurts it is their problem not yours. You should see some of the comments I get but, it's like my husband says when he preaches "If I offend you, I apologize, if the Word offends you, take it up with the Lord". 9 times out of ten it is not what you say put, that they can't stand the truth. Most people know they have no way to defend themselves so they like to "shoot the messenger" Keep going and preaching the Word the way God said, your reward far out weights theirs

If im having a private comversation with someone I whould intend to keep it private. it seems people dont know the first thing about respect or tact anymore since the education system suggested bible study *was a good idea*

If he can't forgive you, that's his problem. He can obviously live with himself being that kind of person. He probbaly doesn't realize he'll have to answer for that action later.
