SaH.... if you´re against the death penalty EXCEPT in cases like this and you´d like to see "monsters like Mr. Clark executed", then you are NOT against death penalty. ;-)
They should carry out a death sentence at once? Right in the court? I don´t think the ones that have later been released because of innocence would share your opinion..... ;-)
Hi Ronnie, a "she" brings alot of changes and is a good warden? Didn´t you recently complain about female staff in a males´ jail? ;-) But seriously, I´m glad to hear that you don´t have so much trouble anymore. Greetings!
Hi Ronnie, hope you didn´t get the feeling that I don´t understand you to want to earn some money by yourself. I wrote to you better not to do anything against the law because otherwise you´ll get into trouble again and I thought you´ve been in there long enough, haven´t ...
Dear Ronnie, leaving a child with a nanny or someone else than the physical parents depends on the nanny and the parents. I have heard of cases like the one you described, right. But sometimes my brother and I were in charge of another woman for some hours - not ...
Wrong. It´s not religion being dangerous but what some people make of it. Important difference!!!! ;-) (Of course it depends on the religion. The one of the old Aztecs is indeed dangerous unless you have masochistic tendencies and fancy your heart being ripped off while you are still alive. But ...
Hi Ronnie, what a really beautiful painting! Did you hear from your mom in the meantime? I hope so. Just maybe express that a little different. "I got one letter which wasn´t from the person I wanted to hear from" - could hurt the other one who wrote you. Just ...
"No one could have told me anything" - yes, that´s exactly the problem with juveniles drinking and taking drugs; on the contrary, they´ll laugh at you because you are so conservative as not to try them. A colleague of mine (well, that was years ago) once told me, but you ...
Well, as you obviously wrote your entries in November already and it lasts until they are published, I thought you knew about Pardo´s date in the meantime? It´s December 11...... so, tomorrow. Just in case you still couldn´t find out. I´ll post a Christmas card to you today or tomorrow. ...
You mean, as selfish as you wanting to have a girlfriend? ;-) I think I know what you mean and there are indeed alot of couples wanting to have children where I do agree with you. For example, I don´t really understand why some people think they have a right ...
PS But I do understand your point with the illness. My mom is ill too and needs medicine throughout her life, and when she and my Dad married they asked a doctor if children could inherit that illness (a kind of what we call "Epilepsie"). He said no and so ...
Hi Ronnie, I agree with you about some people always humiliating others. But I hope you also see a difference between people who do that because it gives them a feeling of having power or being something better than others and people who don´t want to humiliate and hurt others ...
THAT was a really good answer, Ronnie. Could imagine that it wasn´t easy to answer such comments that way. Thumbs up!!!!!! :-) Always remember the texts you sent me in one of your last letters; hating others is like drinking poison and expecting that the other one dies of it. ...
I´d have to look up older posts but I think your side of the Josie story HAS been posted - just in case you´re not informed if it has or not. You know, if you look up her name on google, you only get the other side of the story. ...
Hi Ronnie, don´t waste too many thoughts on critics about your spelling. There are other blogs and on one, I´ve seen two examples of hate mail to the writer. In comparison with the spelling and grammar of those pro DP letter authors, you are a genius. ;-) (And that does ...
Hello SaH, absolutely agreeing about Ronnie´s hateful postings about Mr. Reddish. That´s exactly the reason why I didn´t expect him to write an answer to your comments which is not in that style. I know you don´t believe he´s able to change (at least that´s what I understood of your ...
You don´t seriously believe that - that the world would be better without Christians or other religions, do you? According to my opinion, it´s not religion but the human nature that makes people suppress others, kill others etc. If they didn´t do it because of their religion, they´d do it ...
"Forgiveness is not something I ask for, for it´s not something I deserve." Well, that´s the nature of things like love, mercy and forgiveness. No one "deserves" them. They´re always undeserved gifts by some fellow human beings´ hearts. But if you´re not seeking forgiveness, then why do you judge people ...
Oh, yes, that was a tragedy with that nurse in England.... I do believe those two guys from Australian radio hadn´t expected to really get any information and even less did they expect such a development of the things. When the hospital at once said they only supported the nurses ...
Wow. I remember you posted about that warden telling you "you need to die". And now you´re going to do him THAT favour? Sometimes you really surprise me. ;-)
Oh, I don´t think religion opponents mean THAT with the sentence "religion is dangerous". I have alot of discussions with my colleagues on that topic....and no, it´s not that I´m seeking them. ;-) It´s always that nonsense of "religion is the root of all evil" and "all wars were because ...
Hi Ronnie, I received your two letters when I came back from holidays yesterday and I´ll reply soon. It´s all right, we´re going to do it as you wrote. And hey, about women working in a males´ prison.... hope I didn´t forget the ;-) in my comment? I do understand ...
Beautiful unicorn. ;-) Well, I guess you can´t escape from knowing if you have cancer genes. If there were many cases of cancer in your family already, then it´s more than likely you have those genes too.
PS "Please don´t bring God into it" - Ronnie, it´s completely up to you to say you don´t believe in a God (or at least not in a loving God). But if you want to get comments, you´ll have to accept that people thinking different write their opinion. This contains ...
Were my answers deleted or did I answer at the wrong place? (Think your responses are posted several times.) I don´t believe atheists mean the danger for believers when they say religion is dangerous. I often heard "religion is the root of all evil". That´s probably more what they mean. ...
If you have alot of cancer cases in your family, you will likely have the genes. So you probably can´t run away from knowing the risk. ;-) As I wrote at the other place where this comment response of yours has been posted: You are free not to believe in ...
Excuse me for posting again, but I just saw those pictures in front of my inner eye... Jesus telling you "I forgive you, come in into heaven", you answering what you posted, "nope, I don´t want into heaven", and then sitting in hell after your own choice complaining that God ...
That´s a comment I can fully agree with, SaH. (Especially the tone is somehow different than usually. Sounds more like constructive criticizing than in the past.)
As far as I know, Ronnie HAS already written a blogpost about that Josie story. Who´s now telling the truth - him or Josie - is, of course, something I can´t judge. I agree that in the free world a young man would not have married a woman who is ...
Hello SaH, I´m referring to the blog entry "Bad information", written on October 16, 2012. At the moment, it´s on page 8 (at least on my computer). As I said.... I can´t judge who´s telling the truth, Ronnie or his ex, but in that entry, he did write something about ...
So your family is related to one of his victims? Then I´d like to say how sorry I am at your loss, as well as everybody else´s who lost a loved one by murder. It´s a terrible pain to lose someone one loves anyway, even by natural death, but I ...
Walk a mile in your enemy´s shoes before you judge them? That´s JUST what I advised you to do with Warden Reddish, hè? And that ´s a good suggestion too: Not to spend your possibly last minute on someone you hate but on people you love. So, maybe better spend ...
You know, Ronnie, it´s too easy just to demand of others but not to give back. I´m sure you can do better if only you want and decide to, or at least try to improve. Do it. You´ll find out that trying to understand your enemies and to forgive does, ...
"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" has been abolished by Jesus. ;-) Has been part of the old testament. And as we call ourselves Christians, the important instructions come from Jesus and the new testament. (By the way, that eye for an eye wasn´t an order ...
Quite unusual. The "holier than thou"-number with reference to death penalty proponents, I mean. That´s usual what the proponents accuse us opponents of - acting as we were "holier than them". ;-) Jesus would have to show up to restore your faith? Sorry, but I don´t assume he´ll allow you ...
One thing more... "to get your prozac BACK"? Didn´t you get any for some time? As far as I know, Prozac is a medicine which its users urgently depend on. At least that´s what I understood from the book "Prozac Nation" by Elizabeth Wurtzel.... Or am I wrong?
Hi Ronnie, did you at least get mail in that cell or was that the time when obviously alot of mail got lost? Greetz from Germany.... I sent a letter to you two days ago and I´ll post another one today!!!!
Okay, should have read all your new entries before asking on your Solitary Confinement blog. ;-) So obviously in that cell, mail isn´t allowed either...? That stationery.... ugh about the skull but the dragon is okay. Prefer dragons for example with elves or something like that. Years ago, on holiday ...
Ahm.... didn´t you want to leave the topic "God" aside...? ;-) Please notice this time it was not me who brought it on the table. ;-))) It´s okay if you think he didn´t love us but I do think that Christians have the right to tell their opinion about that ...
PS I would have dropped Paul Howell a few lines as you asked but his date is on February 26 and as I read your request yesterday, February 20, the mail wouldn´t reach him anymore, I guess.... Sorry!
Your asking for help with another blog in combination with mentioning that some of your posts weren´t published sounds to me as if you´re blaming "Between the bars" for it. Did you verify that it was BTB´s fault that your racoon etc. weren´t published - or if maybe some of ...
Oh, you´re probably right that Anne will not manage to convert you. But nothing someone does for somebody else to help him or her in any way is a loss. ;-) Because in the end, the good will, the try will be what will count.
You have been right - I like the two drawings here. ;-) Well, Ronnie, it´s YOUR opinion that Jesus will not show up in flesh and blood because he is not God´s son. I believe otherwise and neither of your "arguments" is going to shake that belief. I´m quite good ...
You know, Ronnie, you have to keep in mind that it took some decades after Jesus´ death and resurrection until the gospel was written down. Before that, people only told their children and others about what had happened. Maybe you can imagine when Mark, Matthew, Luke and John asked people ...
A kingdom for an edit button. ;-) Just one more thing: You know what was what convinced me most that Christianity may be right with its teachings? It was the scene at the crucifixion where Jesus said "forgive them, they don´t know what they´re doing". I mean, NO normal individual ...
Cute duckling.... but I think I told you that already when you sent me that lil card. ;-) Guess nearly every country has a history of blood, slavery and death penalty - the difference is just, do they still practise that nowadays or did they abolish that. ;-)
Oh come on, God is not your waiter whom you can order to fulfill your wishes. ;-) He won´t always give you what you want but what you SHOULD want - what is best for you...and he´ll call you home when your time has come, not before that. If you´re ...
Ronnie, about showing SaH to her neighbours, boss etc.... Are you sure they´d share your opinion? My impression is that a majority of the American population would find her comments completely ok....?
Why do you think the Christian community is going to hate you or stone you? You are not the first and not the last one to spread atheist thoughts (most famous at the moment probably Richard Dawkins, if that name tells you something). The ones who are not faithful will ...
The Holy Spirit and perfect? Of course the Holy Spirit is perfect but human beings aren´t. So of course there´ll be mistakes made by these human beings and of course some understand and some misunderstand God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. The explanation that a holy book is the exact ...
Hi Ronnie, I don´t think you can say that that general way. Just think of people like Mother Teresa who is a representative of the church too and would never have wanted to be considered as something different - just one example. I agree with you that alot was and ...
Hi John, do you know SAH? If not - how do you know she "is the kind of people that wouldn´t help a person in need of help"? I mean, I´d like it better if she wrote her comments in a more moderate way. I think she´s absolutely entitled to ...
Just a question: What is "cardio"? I know this just as part of words like "Kardiologe" (a doctor specialised on hearts) or "Elektrokardiogramm" (EKG).... But I don´t assume that was what you meant...?
Dear Ronnie, yes, I have read "Fear" and also all those comments - at least up to my own last one. As you know I´m open for discussion in general and I consider it completely okay if people disagree with me, but that´s always a matter of style. If debates ...
PS II Maybe, as I´m commenting on this one blog entry anyway, I should take the opportunity to just get a few things right.... 1. Even American secret services did take North Korea serious, as they said in the news.... they´re simply not sure what exactly that dictator possesses, but ...
3. It´s not proven that near-death experiences are simply a last reaction of the dying brain, to be exact, of the God-spot. A part of scientists believe that, but there are also other scientists - even such who first also believed that - who think completely different. 4. Nope, God ...
