I go by Collie in online spaces.

In truth I don't really vibe well with conservative Christian spaces. I haven't been conservative for at least... 5? 6? 7 years? Longer? But I used to be very active here. Always been a quirky oddly passionate weirdo no matter where I am.

So far as my history on the site... I can be passionate about topics that are important to me and that doesn't always translate well in spaces where other strong personalities live. For this reason I will be avoiding the political section and any/all heated sections or subjects. I cannot handle heated discussions. I just can't. I can be a very pleasant and nice person and I'm generally super chill. But I get stressed out and overwhelmed very quickly if it feels like people are upset with me or if people keep coming at me for less-than-positive reasons. So if I am to stick around I'll need to place certain boundaries (for myself) on my interactions.

Hello again, Collie : )

We eliminated the Political Forum awhile back for similar reasons; partly because there never seemed to be a willingness to abide by the scriptural command to pray for leaders and lift them up before the Lord (regardless of party), and partly because things always seemed to turn nasty and divisive.

We've also been striving harder to create a more courteous and respectful and loving atmosphere in general, and if you are converting to Catholicism then you can discuss Catholic theology in the ASZ without fear of interference from non-Catholics. Not sure who's there right now, but you could tag God'sGrace, who still drops in. And there's the Lady's Locker Room.

Hope you feel comfortable here, and welcome back. Good seeing you again : )

if people keep coming at me for less-than-positive reasons.
Jesus says the wounds of a friend (a true friend in Christ)
are better than the kisses of the ones who are unfaithful.
God even scourges (beats) anyone who is His son now on earth.
God says if any man is without scourging, He is not My son.
So, there is a time and place for pain, grief, and sorrow , as God makes us Christ Like that way, as written in Hebrews and other Scripture throughout the Bible.
 
Hi evenifigoalone and welcome back :wave2

It's always best to stick with topics you want to get involved in and not get to stimulated by what others reply with, especially when they come against you. Either use the ignore button or just don't reply back to those who try to oppose you in an attacking manner. :)

Yeah I used to have an avatar of Sonic from the Archie comics. Those used to be a continuation of the 90s cartoon actually. (Until copyright stuff and they had to reboot the comics a bit? I think. I stopped reading by that point.)
