i am hurt and humbled by the judgement that has apparently been passed on to me without so much as an opportunity to speak in my own defense... not even the courtesy of notice of charge... (perhaps i have outspoken myself already? ...was the limit posted somewhere and i failed to comply with it?) ...it is with deep remorse that i now must reflect back on all those carefully considered entries that i made in the theology thread... no doubt, my fascination with the spiritual presence within each of us SolaraGuy subscribers, was a misguided foray into the personalities of several of you... and in reciprocating through my vulnerable attempts to exploit those character traits within myself, even of fault, i have opened my soul to the dagger of disent that has delivered a ghastly wound upon my person as crisp........
that i should be so bold as to extend an appeal for the audience of you all, SolaraGuy collectively, and suggest that my 500 entries were not "abuse" as has been leveled, "the charge"... and consider this, my jury, the content of each and most of my entries as represented by those within the tally of 500, exceeded many the volume of yours by a fold of 10, an evidence compelling the question: "was crisp a precipitator of entries for the sake of entry with agenda to escalate his post count without substance? or was he merely and sincerely a participant of the highest order, a "player", whom stepped into the line of fire from those observers who had prematurely judged him at fault on the basis of misrepresented cause....." can you honestly look deep into your heart, and convict crisp of a crime such as this?
i have been engaged with you all in both wit, suggestion, satire, storytelling, editorial, commentary, argument, discussion, observation, commendation, criticizm, sharing, empathy, and support..... and you would acuse me of "abuse" of the system....
once again, i am hurt... inasmuch as you have not struck a decisive blow that would outright terminate my existence here... i can only hope that this spiraling descent that now envelopes me won't come to the self-destructive end that i must now fear....
let this be a lesson to me... the punitive purpose of mercy. thank you my judge, my assessors... for at least, sparing me execution.
