No idea who that is.Sooo...do you hang with mrortega??...just curious? If so, I'd like to keep a bead on where y'all are hangin' so I can go the other way...no offense.
Who are you talking about? Never heard of him.Was mrortega with you by chance?
You know I guess I will take offense to your post. You've been a member for 4 whole weeks made 6 posts including this one and you want to insult me with it.Sooo...do you hang with mrortega??...just curious?

Ok, my bad I am sorry. Please accept my apology. I had never heard of him until you asked and then I went and looked at his posts and it seemed like he looked for ways to get in the middle of things which I am strongly againstLighten up. No offense meant to you by my post. It was meant as did mrortega bring the badness onto you - it seems to follow him (or he goes looking for it depending on how you view it).
Greeper can speak for himself.
... by bunga bunga.
First it's Bondhead. I will take the mistake as an honest one. Second are you asking about the Team I am on, the Mission Board I am with, the language school I am at, the ministry I am currently working with, where I went to Bible College or who my sending Church is?I'll take 'death', over 'death by bunga bunga', any day
By the way, Bonehead, what group are you working with?
A friend of mine came home for Christmas, after just graduating from missionary school in Argentina. He's working with YWAM. Flying back south tomorrow!
I appreciate it. I am a prayer hog and will take all the prayer given to the Lord on my behalf.Absolutely that was a misread on my part, no offense meant.
I will certainly check out the links you posted. Not familiar with any of them yet, but I will be .
I certainly wish you and your family Good health & safety as you are doing Gods work! I do mission work a couple times a year, but on a MUCH smaller scale. Just here in the states helping the less fortunate.

You can't tell the difference from a person who protects themselves from becoming a victim and someone who goes looking for it and gets in other peoples business.
I guess what I should have done was allowed the guy to rob me and hurt me then I could have written my post from a Peruvian hospital bed. But If I had done that I think you would have been a criticizer of me for taking no action.
Have you been to South America, to Peru or to Ecuador, have you been to Mexico City or Panama. I am not taking about the 4 Star all inclusive resorts but down in the areas where my family and I are generally the only North Americans for miles. If you had you might have realized that there are ways of handling things down here which is vastly different from the US. But since you obviously haven't let me say walk in my shoes before you judge a situation or make an accusation without all the facts.
I am not usually this aggressive with others in my posts but I hope you never get in a situation where a real self defense issue arises. Because I kinda think you would freeze up, making yourself and anybody around you a sitting duck. There is a whole lot more to self defense than paper targets and K-Mart pistols.
Thanx I appreciate the clarification! Sorry if I came down hard. I just don't want to been see as mrortega. I think what he is dong is dangerous and unwise. Please accept my apology.Ummm...yeah, I assumed the would tip you off that my tongue was firmly imbedded in my cheek. No offense meant, but thanks for the 'warm welcome' to the 'new guy'. Even if I HAD intended to be a jerk...who's hurt more, the offender, or the one who chooses to take offense...just a bit of spiritual food for thought.
Yeah, I've never been to SA, but I've been on the wrong end of a knife, and been shot at...all before I needed to shave daily. Hence the desire to avoid dangerous situations...even within a good-natured joke.
Sure, I lurk a lot and ain't much of a 'talker', but in a couple of days he'd posted about 3 situations I'd not like to be in and then I read yours...I just found the thought in my head, not insulting, but humorous (not the situation...I'm thankful you're okay and will pray for your continued safety).
That's all...I'll go back to my regularly scheduled lurking.
