Wow! Close minded people!

[aneaglesangel]

This is a letter I received recently. I was so shocked at the vehemence in this short little letter, and also by the fact that without giving me a chance to defend myself, I was blocked from replying. So I'm putting my reply in here, and I'd love to hear the opinions on others about living in this new age that we call the new millenia! I think if I had been allowed to reply to this, I would have shown just where the field is going with people like this. You're ok, you go on with your silly little close minded life, and we'll just keep on keeping on and facing these kind of challenges bravely and with good humor! Hugs guys!

This person's note to me:

Ghosts don't exist - it's bad science - you lack the education to fully do such an endeavor and those who do have it expunged it from every crecible university. Don't worry - wor ona book all you like - as with your delusions and fantasies, and yourself, it's going nowhere. Get help - you need it. And I mean psychiatric.

You are an idiot.

My un-sent response:

LMAO! I love to encounter open minded people! I take a very scientific approach to investigation and one of my team members is an analytical research chemist, along with other highly educated and intelligent people. Bad science is that which closes itself off to possibilities. Think string theory, multi-dimensional universes and maybe you can keep up with us. Many of us are in this to help to bring science forward, not to keep it in the dark ages. Many years ago, they believed the world was flat, and anyone who argued with that was considered crazy. I live on a round planet suspended in space where science and all its possibilities are just waiting to be discovered! As for me, I'll step into the future with my mind and eyes open, and when science catches up to us, we'll be considered pioneers! Enjoy your flat earth, hon! Take care and I hope you find some other, closed minded people to enjoy your very small, limited, life with!

Aneaglesangel,

I have never and will likely never understand why people have to be so rude and obstinant.

I am just a Southern girl, and I was always taught that you catch more flies with sugar that you do with vinegar. I can never imagine being that rude to another individual.

I thought that "conversation" is the exchange of ideas, discourse. Just because I might not agree with someone doesn't give me an excuse to be rude, mean or hateful.

I am sorry that you had to encounter such rudeness.

Have a blessed day!

Hmm, maybe I was raised in the south too, for I believe the same thing! Oh well, ya can't change a close minded person, you can only change yourself. As for me, I'll stick with the paranormal, I've never been happier since I started my team, and I have to say, riding along with the Spooky Crew has been one heck of an adventure! Hugs, great to see you here, Blue!!

wow that was rude and unnecessary - what did the person get from sending you this? did it accomplish them anything good? I'd say probably not

[blueemerald]

When has being so negative ever beget positive? I daresay that that would be rare.

Well Angel, being Southern can be a state of mind! lol

I understand about following your heart and being so happy. I feel that way about music. It is amazing when you find what you are meant to do how much of the rest of your life just falls into place.

This is an idiotic rant not worth a thoughtful reply. He blocked you out of fear. Fear that you would cause his little hateful world to collapse. He fancies himself educated, part of a smart elite, but as we can see from his poor grammar, he is shooting slightly higher than his abilities warrant. Don't trouble yourself over such stupidity.

[aneaglesangel]

Nope, I won't let others bother me. Never have, I love this field and it's where I belong. A few bad, sour grape people can't make me change my mind! Thanks guys! Hugs!
