>I agrerr Franc -- the social media has created a space to be anyone yoou wish and misrepresent everything..news .products etc.. service..You can make a fancy site and say anything... then if someone complains there is so much deception and chacter assaination that no one knows the truth because a good amount lie and cheat and there is Faux news.... the answer is keep walking , stay on the path, tell the truth and do the best you can... as the deceivers always do themselves in by Greeed and lies and deception... but some appear like they are winning as they make money get stuff and creat fear... but in my experience that never works long as all the friendships and business is built on weak foundations.... heack the only reason im around is because i was blessed to meet some really kind , fair people, that have helped me when I fell down...and I believe God and family are important and must haves.. when the others fall down none helps them as they dont want to be hurt or deceived and many want vengence so they sue them or make sure they dont hurt others... it can take much time and some get away with it years... butso far on ebay... itappears Justice does come eventually...... I try my best to forgive the predators and see they are the truly sick souls and just need to learn to Love.... we can all be redeemed I believe... its just a long process sometimes and some peopel get really sick.emotionally and mentally/ so I pray for them... but sometimes I also get angery/// its just that seldom solves anything but creates more anger. > > >---- Original Message ---- >From: fdav...@verizon.net >To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU >Subject: Re: [MOPO] Ebay Buyer from hell >Date: Sat, 7 Jul 2012 20:53:16 -0400 > >>I think a good deal of the problem stems from people no longer >having to >>relate consistently to other people.
