You may (or may not) be wondering why I have not enabled comments on this blog. The main reason is that the Internet can be a nasty place. Something happens when people are anonymous. They say things that they might not otherwise say to a person's face, or if their identity is known or can be traced. I think about the words I choose when I'm driving on the freeway and another driver makes a very inconsiderate and/or unsafe driving choice. I most likely would not use that vocabulary to that driver's face because (a)my parents taught me not to use words like those, and (b)that driver might be packing some heat and make another very inconsiderate and/or unsafe choice. So it is with some people who post comments in public arenas online. They hit the "delete" button on etiquette and good manners and say the darnedest things. And I just don't want my blog to become a forum for smack talk.
So if you would like to offer some constructive criticism, some words of praise and encouragement, an alternative viewpoint based on sound reasoning and/or personal life experience, or whatever is on your mind and heart, you can click on "view my complete profile" on the right and find a link to email me. Be it known now, though, that nasty words will get no response from me because I will not cast my pearls before swine (Matthew 7:6).
