1 | Is there middle ground? | Romans | Hank | 21767 | ||
Nolan, have you heard about the guy who always took the "safe" middle ground on issues? He prided himself on being a middle-of-the roader until a car came along and damaged his body tissues and changed his position on important issues. --Hank | ||||||
2 | SAFE? | Romans | charis | 21781 | ||
Dear Hank, Greetings in the name of Jesus! Do you call the 'middle ground' of this issue SAFE? :-) You've got to be kidding! This is probably one of the more dangerous (courageous!) stands I have taken. But I think I would rather stay where I am, buffeting and all, than go with one of the 'mainstream' contradictory sides. It seems to me that the narrow gate, narrow path is better than the broad avenues on either side! :-) Blessings, my friend, in Christ Jesus, charis |

3 | SAFE? | Romans | Hank | 21822 | ||
My esteemed Charis: Either I've been woefully unclear in my post or you mistook the meaning. I'm not calling the middle ground "safe" by any means. Please observe that I put the word in quotes and the intended meaning was therefore the exact opposite of how you seem to have taken it. The "middle ground" or "middle of the road" is, in fact, a dangerous place to be. In my little anecdote, the middle-of-the-road guy was struck by a car. My, how tricky words can be. Sorry that I was not more lucid. --Hank | ||||||

Dear Hank, Greetings in Jesus' name! :-) :-) :-) My dear friend, I did know what you meant! Thus the :-) :-) :-) I have learned well to look carefully at your words, to check for alternate meanings of words (that are correct, but not necessarily popular), and to look carefully at your punctuation. Your anecdotes are lucid, and relevant! I have also learned that you haven't a mean bone in your body, so if I ever think that something is 'iffy,' I get out my salt grains, and apply much benefit of doubt, and behold! I find wit, humor and lots of grace! :-) No offense taken and no apologies necessary, as I often reply in kind! :-) Wabash Cannonball?! Maybe I could be Centerline Sam?! Fencetop Fred?! or Middleground Marvin?! :-) Though not too safe, I like it here! In Christ Jesus, charis |
