Author	Thread: Goodbye CDFF
Admin	Goodbye CDFF Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 02:16 PM I just wanted to post this in a separate topic in case any of you are not following the "If you were dating a girl..." topic 10 threads down. ________ Due to the onslaught of hate mail I received overnight and this morning (before even posting my last reply), I will be deactivating my CDFF account later on today/tonight. I will miss many of you, but do not wish to be part of a community that shames women for being open about the struggles in their lives. There's nothing Christ-like in that. And certainly nothing conducive to healing in that. To those of you who have taken time to send off kind notes to me regarding this topic: Thank you again. It means more to me than I can adequately express in words right now. Once again, I apologize that this thread has triggered so much hurt in people. Rape IS a very hurtful thing to talk about, but not talking about it and shaming women into keeping quiet about it just magnifies the pain. I also apologize for being somewhat harsh in my last reply. It sickens me to see rape victims being bullied for speaking out and I don't think that it honours God to keep quiet and let the bullies just keep at it. But I could have taken some time to cool off and phrase things more diplomatically. I apologize that I did not. All of that said, I think that part of the hope we have in Christ is that He will work ALL things together for good. And I think we miss out on so much of who He is when we close that door and assume that our bad experiences should be kept in the dark and left unhealed and unused. I want more than that. I want more than just muddling through and falling apart at every triggering thing. I believe that God can absolutely be glorified through my experience and I refuse to settle for less by keeping silent and feeling too ashamed and too timid to open myself up to however He plans for me to use this to serve Him. Now, if you'll all excuse me, I have a pregnancy test to go retake. Post Reply
DontHitThatMark View Profile History	Goodbye CDFF Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 02:37 PM Sorry to see you go. I don't know what kind of mail you got, but I can guess it was wrong and you shouldn't let wrong intimidate you. They're the ones with the problem, not you. But you have to do what you have to do. Please come back and visit once in awhile! :peace::peace: :prayingm: Post Reply

View Profile History	Goodbye CDFF Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 03:17 PM I hadn't read that one till now, but I get the gist of it somewhat (too many words for me and I've only had 3 hours of non-consecutive sleep in the last 24 hours). All I can say is what a shame, and when it comes to something like that you shouldn't be on here looking for help or answers since as much as we'd like to and would do our best when it comes down to it we just can't and you should go find the help you need we're it's at. As far as the haters go, shame on them. That and blessings, I sincerely hope things work out for you for the best and stay close to Jesus. Bye -Brandon :waving: Post Reply

View Profile History	Goodbye CDFF Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 03:54 PM Pixy, I haven't been long on this forum, but in my short time here I want to tell you how much I have enjoyed your spirit and heart for Christ...and your post topics. You will missed, but I respect your decision and understand how it might be hard to cope with harsh hate mail at this time. Your healing and health are priority. Perhaps, as our Lord leads, you will return when you've regained some strength. I admire your courage in presenting a topic...yes, controversial...but one that encourages us, as Christians, to explore the depths of our hearts and prayerfully find compassion and the unconditional love of Christ to extend to others. It is tempting to stay on the surface and not plummet the depths...but it's in the depths where we find our greatest treasure. You will be in my prayers, little Pixy. I am glad that Jesus is there and you are wrapped firmly in His arms. God's peace. Post Reply
SilverFire View Profile History	Goodbye CDFF Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 04:20 PM I understand your reasons. Sometimes, it's just not worth putting up with all the haters. You will be missed. There's just not many deep and creative people here and now there's one less. :( Post Reply

bcpianogal View Profile History	Goodbye CDFF Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 08:52 PM Aww Pixy...I'm sorry to see you go. And I just got back, too. *sniff sniff* It's a shame that people can't have an adult conversation about a relevant topic without getting bent out of shape about it. I hope you'll come back on here someday, and update us on your relationship! Best of luck, and God bless! Beth Post Reply
Rabbit32 View Profile History	Goodbye CDFF Posted : 14 Sep, 2010 09:34 PM Pixy I didn't read all of what was said in the last post, this semester has me overwhelmed. However, I see your heart, and I know it hurts when people say nasty things to you, but if it is what God wants, if the Holy Spirit propmts you than stay. I garuntee you that at least the thread you shared about your stuggle will plant seeds deep in the heart of women, and it helped open my eyes to the struggles you women go through with their self image. Plus who knows what you can learn from being on here, and I sence God has been tugging at your heart about things that have been posted on here. I know how to get a hold of you if you go, but I urge you to reconsider, I think you are a valuable member and you have a purpose in ministering to others. :) Post Reply
