A Message to David

Letter

Kady Birdwhistle
This is a letter in response to the scathing message left in my inbox:

David,
The article about Barack Obama was in no way anti-Semitic. It was simply an assignment about race relations and exploring some very tough questions. These are questions that must be answered by the students of life and of school. It is not my choice, but to answer these. I am so sorry that I happen to comment on some people's works, that you hate with a passion. I will always return the comments of those who comment on my work. Why do you ask, because it is POLITE. I was raised to try and be polite no matter what the situation. Well, my politeness is no longer. I am part of no one's gathering. I am my own person. I believe in whatever I believe in as do you. I really wish you the best of luck in you lifetime, but I will not be accused of doing anything other than posting an assignment. Furthermore, I go to a LIBERAL school, where were are taught to see every point of a situation, not only the GOOD but the BAD. Now let me clarify that last statement for you.......the GOOD of ALL and the BAD of ALL.......not about Jews of Christians or of any other type of faith of belief or race or creed. We are taught to accept, yet scrutinize all aspects of the issues at hand.

Kady

    I appreciate your righteousness.

    Kady, this will be hotly discussed for a long time to come. So either be a doormat and say nothing, or speak what you feel in love and let the chips fall where they may. Good response.

    I know it can be difficult when someone leaves a nasty comment on a something we have written. The more controversial the issue the more we risk opening our selves up to insults. I think things can get really ugly when it comes to politics and religion, as people are really passionate about these things. Unfortunately some people don't know how to be polite when they decide to debate an issue. You are a wonderful person, unfortunately there will always be people who enjoy getting a rise out of someone else more than anything in life. It is a sad way to live, but I just pitty them and move on. Keep on doing what you do, you do it well.

    Never be ashamed of the Gospel of Truth. It's ok to be bold with what you believe. All we can do is pray and then vote and hope that the Lord will put who he wants in there :) They are all part of the end times and a lot of this is very prophetic stuff. It's inevitable anyways so sometimes I wonder why people like myself still argue about it, knowing it's prophetic and inevitable :) LOL I hope that made sense (yes I am talking about ME) hehe... You are a sweet person and I cannot even imagine that you have one tiny speckle of evil doing or ill regards towards anyone :) hugzz

    You wrote your questions because you wanted your AC friends to help you out....you didn't (or never would) purposely offend anyone. He is in the wrong here...he lashed out at someone who cared about him very much...You keep on being the sweet little sister that we all know and love.

    I totally agree with coffeemug, you go girl you are right in every aspect!!!!!!!!

  • Coffee Mugg3/21/2008

    Very well written Miss Kady. If someone cannot say something constructive about someone's work, they should keep their trap shut, especially in a case like this where it is an assignment for school. Good Job Miss Kady.ken
