if we can only comment and receive comments from people who are our "friends" on here, there's really no point in being on here. i'm not looking for an echo chamber, i'm looking for the thoughts and opinions of others. if others have different thoughts and opinions, i want to hear them. we tend to only friend request those who think and believe like us. i'm glad YHWH isn't like that. if HE were that way, not a single one of us would have ever made it onto HIS friends list.
