Original message
WTF? My mother sends me an email that a really good friend of the family and an old
 boyfriend of mine died. (I don't know when because apparently he has been buried already). Then a couple minutes later she sends me another email saying that he asked his sister the night before he died if she thought he was going to Heaven to which she replied "yes". (He was 50 the same age as me. He was a bad alcoholic all his life and knew he was dying.) Then a couple minutes after that she write about the fight me and he have been having for the last week and tells me to stop putting down Christianity and that my business behaviors are bad. It's a long stupid story about her volunteering at the church thrift shop, bringing things home to see if we would like them and then either taking them back or paying for them. I went there last week when she was volunteering and and took some things to see if they would sell on EBAY and was going to either take them back or pay for them if they sold.

WTF is wrong with that? When I walked through the thrift store I saw about 4 things I donated and that is just one day. I also give things away all the time from Freecycle, to the woman's center and of course her church's thrift store. I also have it set up so that if anything sells on EBAY I donate a % to a Big Cat Rescue.

Am I a thief?

And why the **** did she have to bring all this up right now? I've crying about my friend as I type this. And I feel guilty because I think I am corrupt.

And to top it all off she says to stop putting her church down. Well when was the last time you even asked about my beliefs ma? And the last thing she saw me do re: Christianity was when I read the story of James Dobson beating up his dog Siggie at the Publix because they were selling it right next to the Deli counter with al the other "convert them to Christianity" books.

And I feel guilty talking about all this when my friend is now dead and buried, (yea I wasn't informed when he died. Apparently she wanted to wait until after the funeral or more probably she was pissed at me and didn't want to talk to me until today.

I know I am  and I feel guilty about it. But I can't get anyone on the phone plus I wanted to write things out and hopefully my friends here will let me know that I am not the monster my mother makes me out to be.

What am I supposed to do now? I'm going to send a card I know. I would have sent flowers but of course I wasn't told until after the funeral. Maybe I can sen them to the house now anyway? I think I'll do that.

To all.

Let's see, you take things that don't belong to you so you can sell them on E-Bay. Then, if they do, you'll give a percentage to a charity (Big Cat Rescue). You also take other things to give to charity (Freecycle, Woman's Center). Yes, that makes you a f'n thief. It also falls in line with the entire sickass liberal ideology. You take things that don't belong to you and give to them to charity. Do you tell them that the church is donating them? Or are you doing it in your name? My guess, your own ****in' name. This makes you feel good giving shit that doesn't belong to you to someone else. Who gets the credit? You do.

You're a ****ing scumbag, bitch. Taking things from someone else and giving it to another isn't charity, it's theft coupled with self-aggrandizement. You fit in well with the Communists, ho.

So this person was going to take something from a thrift shop the proceeds from which go to support a church; then sell it on ebay (presumably for more than the thrift shop charges); then use the profit from that to divert money to support orphan tigers or whatever; give the thrift shop the amount they would have charged and keep the difference.  If this dummie can't see what is dishonest about that she must be stupid.

Using the thriftstore as your personal warehouse and inventory of marketable goods? Yeah, that sums up the definition of thievery pretty nicely.

Dobson has a 3 or 4 sentence account of making his dog go lay down at bedtime one night when the dog didn't want to get off the toilet seat in front of the heater...or some such thing.  It's in the middle of a 600+ page book.  Of course, that handful of sentences is about 95% of what's actually discussed about that book...(I think it was Dare to Discipline.)  Typical liberal view...out of hundreds of thousands of sentences, they took issue with these few and that's all they can recall of the entire book.   ::)
