Hello Readers,
The writer of the lengthy comment (that was pretty vain and guilty wasn't it?) on my "Clarification" blog chose to insult me in a personal way because they disagreed with my philosophy on work and life. Despite the temptation of posting the stellar rebuttal that I have penned, I have chosen to send that directly and privately to the commenter to spare them the embarassment that they tried to bestow upon me.
However, I will make a few general statements that sum up my feelings on the above referenced comment.
1) This blog was not meant for anyone specific
2) Just because I don't work too much doesn't mean I can't express my opinion on people who do (if you disagree, maybe you're a fascist)
3) No, it is not "necessary" to spend all of my free time with my spouse. I just want to.
4) Working 40 hours a week does not make my job more important than God or Dave. In fact, it's an important way of serving them both (see Proverbs 31:10-12, Proverbs 21:25).
5) I do enjoy material blessings. I admit it openly. I simply will not sacrifice my home life to get them. (see Matthew 6:19-20)
6) It's obvious that this blog was upsetting to the commenter. I think that person should consider why, since it honestly was not targeted at them.
7) This blog was not created to be a debate forum, and I look forward to writing about a totally new topic very soon. Keep checking back!
