do i deserve my illness?

[wiccamom]

i have tried to be helpful to people here but have been slated because i dont worship god, should that matter and should i be destined to hurt more because i am pagan??

What yoou or anybody believes in is irrelavant the common factor we all have on here is fibro and other things that go in hand in hand with that some bodies religeous beliefs or their ethnical background has absolutely nothing to do with any of that so it is not nice if this has happend and if it has and you are uncomfortable with what ever was said if you look at the blog there is a report piece on top so you should report it and then the mediators/volenteers will look into your concerns and will sort any issues out hope this helps love to you diddle x

I'm with Christine and Diddle too Wiccamon. I don't have any particular beliefs to be honest.

I'm curious as to what you mean that you've been slated here. I haven't seen any remarks like that but of course I may have missed something. This is a really fab forum and as Chris says, we're here to support each other. It's definitely not about anything else.

Take care,

Sue

Hi wiccamom,

Nobody deserves this illness hun, i wouldnt even put this on my worst enemy.

I dont have any beliefs, would say i am more christian if anything though, but everyone is different and i dont care what religion a person is aslong as they are happy.

I have trawled through to see what you mean and i just think people have taken things the wrong way. I think when wrintg it people cant get over what they really mean hun. I really dont think people have meant to slate you.

You definatly dont deserve to hurt more because you are a pagen hun.

Hope you stay with us, and feel abit better soon.

Hugs, kel xxx

my faith is very important to me, but I dont and wouldnt force it down anyones throat, we all paddle our own canoe and live the life we want,I dont think whether we have a faith or not matters and no one deserves this illness, you do have a faith just because it different than mine , it really doesnt matter,

[LindseyMid]

That's really sad that anyone would make you feel that way.

Religious faith can help some people find calm and meaning in life. It can also be used to cause strife and as an excuse for inhumane treatment of others. History shows clearly that religious faith of any form does not protect against illness or disaster.

FWIW I'm atheist and happy to say so. I have Fibro, but mine is under control.

[Hidden]

i agree with the others.. no one deserves this illness.. what we all believe in is our own choice. gentle hugs..xx

[Hidden]

I think we re all in this together, we re all suffering, and I for one dont give a damn what anyones race, religion, etc is, I just want to be part of a friendly forum, as I think we all need someone who can understand what we re going through

[rubywhiplash]

Sorry too that you feel this way just draw a line under it and carry on as others have said we don't always say what we mean as just can't explain it I have no idea with regard to the posts in question but can honestly say on my time here I haven't seen anything bad, As Lynn said re politics and religion one place I stay well away from as can cause such trouble but I am sure no one has set out to upset you, and of course your beliefs have nothing to do with your illness we are all in this together hun please don't go and desert us we all need to stick together!

You take care Hugs Ruby xx

Apologies - I hadn't realised that this was something that had happened in this community. That kind of behaviour will not be tolerated. If anything like that happens again, please hit the Report button and we'll deal with it.

yes i agree we all have our own opinions on hose sujects andthey stay in the background the main topic on here is fibro and related illnessess/treatments/therapies etc etc and most of all a place where we can discuss and help each through our days wether they be happy or sad ones we are allhere for each other no one wants to fall out or argure yes discussions can become heavy and slightly heated at times but you must remember we are all in pain and ill and sometimed that gets us down so we may sound sharp love to you diddlex

Hi wiccamom I DID see something on aquestion or blog that you did a while ago.And thought it a hurtful comment.

So think I know where you are coming from on that.

I have my beliefs,but also thank the earth the moon and the sun.

Your`s being Wicca is a loving belief,you do know harm as you believe it will come back.

Some small minded people should live and let live.

Love and many Hugs Butterfly xxxxx

[Ebony]

I do not believe that any illness has to do with a religion. All I can say is that most wars are caused by religion !!!! not illnesses

wiccamom

merry meet !

dont think anyone deserves this illness, no matter who they are or what they have done in life, black, white, green, christian, muslim, pagan, jehovah, end of day were all people struggling through and helping each other with a daily struggle,

I myself am pagan, a wiccan also, no one should be slated for their beelifs, after all its that bit of faith that many people have that helps them on the low days, no matter if you worship the purple dinosaur with red feet, if it helps a personal personally, then im all for it, after all lifes hard enough eh ?

keep your chin up lassie and love and light to you x

[wiccamom]

i would just like to say thanks to you all! once again i am awake at silly o clock, thats been happening all wk, and thought i would pop back, sooooooo glad i have checked in. i do take things to heart but as some have said here, it does become a part of my illness through being quite low a lot of the time, i am on decent anti-D's but have been worse since i felt someone had a go on here and even worse now my kids are on holiday from school! i am a loving caring human and many say i do a great job with my kids so i shall keep plodding on.

The comments here have cheered me up and hope to speak to you some more on here. BB x
