Bible Note: justme, I can certainly appreciate your opinion and response and I do, sir, take it kindly as I believe you meant it to be. Just so happens, I feel as strongly about my position on the matter as you do yours. First let me assure you in matters of importance like suicide my concern is not for myself nor Lockman nor any other then the person who may be in trouble. Second, your view of just passing a person off shows a lack of understanding my position. It is not passing the person off, it is encouraging the person to seek help from someone equipped to help them. This text based forum in my opinion is far from that place. Many may mean well, but I've seen all to often on this text based forum a great deal of confusion and misunderstanding in what people read into a post. Not to mention some of the absolute nonsense that some will post. Brother, consider the response you and Cody Mac gave. If this person is so depressed they are considering harming themselves, do you really think they are capable of wading through so much on their own without proper guidance? I think not personally. Actually, I could see how such a response could be harmful in that the person could become even more depressed and frustrated not understanding all the information. Let's face it, when a person reaches such a point, confusion is the last thing they need! I would encourage all to be wise enough to understand their limitations in matters such as these and the limitations of the format in which we communicate in this forum. And let's not forget... The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. (James 5:16) Steve |
