Talked to a 2x2 today. Real truther-Nazi. Meeting in his home. Pays for a Gospel meeting hall. Brother in the work. Quarter of his house dedicated to a worker spa and resort. You know the type.
Anyway, for fun, thought I'd drop the name Brad Lewis to see his reaction. He knew the name. I was shocked. Says Brad's a dead-beat ex-worker and ex-friend who leeches off friends and family, refuses to get a job, spends all day in front of his computer trashing the friends and workers, and spends his evenings and weekends hitting the nudey bars.

Brad is annoying and psychologically unstable enough without lies being made up about him. This board is becoming unreadable, between nasty "nitro" and Brad.

Oh, how funny!! Typical die-hard 2x2 rhetoric - only in their own minds. I'm not defending Brad - he's quite capable of doing that himself. Just commenting on the truther-nazi comments.

OK, you kind of revealed yourself with the "worker spa and resort" comment. Wouldn't want anyone treating a worker nice or anything. Using the word "Nazi" to describe someone is usually a pretty good indicator that someone is a little over the top too. Given all that, I'm kind of doubting that this truther used the exact words you quoted either. But hey, that's just me.......

(I don't know why anything here surprises me anymore.) Don't take it to seriously. I think your posts are reasonable, balanced, tempered, and fair. And as I'm sure you already know, I'm the only one here that really matters.

I have to say I am quite taken a back by the nasty nitro comments. Are you kidding me? Nitro is hardly nasty. He is quite a nice read and though I know many will disagree with me, Brad is quite enjoyable as well. I don't always agree with what he has to say, but I do enjoy his perspective all the same. Nothing wrong with different perspectives as long as it causes us to think. just my two cents.

OK, you kind of revealed yourself with the "worker spa and resort" comment. Pool, hot-tub, fitness equipment, hydro-massage table, full body massage recliner, sun-deck with a scenic 270 degree view, full kitchen, two master suites each with California King size beds and full bath, library, pool table, dart board, foosball table, two pinball machines, and a well stocked art/craft room. All private, indoor, climate controlled, and maintained by a housekeeper who doubles as a laundry maid and errand girl, plus they have it all to themselves. Calls it the "worker's batch", and it's missing a few things like a sauna, home theater, and high-speed internet ready computer, plus the workers are there a solid three months out of the year. So I guess "worker spa and resort" is a little misleading. Sorry. What should I call it? So much for the humble, dedicated, self denial and self sacrifice that is the work. If this is nice, what would spoiling them be? Moved out of his home of 14 years because his nearest neighbor (1/3 mile away) is a homosexual couple. Doesn't like black people because they're "dirty folk". Doesn't like imports because they're made by "asian vermin". Doesn't like the Girl Scouts because they teach girls to become "mouthy busybodies". Thinks TV, movies, internet, makeup, jewelry, women in college, working women, women's pants, short haired women, anything but country music, and anything but his religion are on a one way trip to hell. So I guess "truther-Nazi" is a little strong. Sorry. What should I call him? I relayed it like this: "a dead-beat ex-worker and ex-friend who leeches off friends and family, refuses to get a job, spends all day in front of his computer trashing the friends and workers, and spends his evenings and weekends hitting the nudey bars" He said it more like this: "He got lost in the computer and quit the work. He's not one of the friends anymore. He bad-mouths us now. He's just a jobless bum living off his mom and pop. Spends his time now down at the club watching the girls dance." Sorry if my misinterpretation changed the spirit of his words. I'll try to be more careful.

I agree with the other poster that it sounds like you are quite the embellisher. There is envy and jealousy all over your words.

Try reading the letters in the New Testament, ie Galatians, Corinthians etc. Lots of troubles in those churches. It could make your eyes bleed. You obviously would have gone somewhere else.

Millions more in this earth have way less than I do and I feel blessed. If you can't see that original poster's writings are biased by his dislike of workers, you must be blind. The entire post's credibility is shaded by the bias.

If you can't see that original poster's writings are biased by his dislike of workers... I think your posts are biased by your dislike for ex-2x2s.

However, that doesn't mean I think that all 2x2's are bad nor do I think that all workers are bad. I just disagree with some of the doctrine. I was around long enough to know that the workers are quite concerned about the perception of their work. If a "head worker" believed that any of his workers were spending 3 months lounging at a "worker spa," heads would roll.

If you say you are and EX then you must understand that the majority of friends will diss you even if God speaks to you in person and you prove it. After all look at what happened to Diane.
