This is the video that was found to be so offensive to the community at letsvlog.com and subsequently banned. Here is my original rant about this: vimeo.com/5447702 This was my introduction to myself, which somehow provoked insulting, negative, critical reactions from the community. The admin then determined that my video was causing a "divide within the community." I had no problem with the insulting responses, but apparently I am not allowed to respond to those insults, and rather than reprimand those who were actually initiating and launching the insults, I was removed. Let me know if you were offended by this video. Of course, one of the Christians at the site commented that, of course I would be more warmly embraced by YouTube because you are all just "secular pagans." LOL

    I'm sickened to think this was removed from that site - really pisses me off.

    Oh no, you have reactions like I do. I literally felt nauseated. I wanted to throw up. And I'm not exaggerating. It felt like a kick in the stomach while people stood around and smiled.

    I'm glad to see your cute little head pop up more often these days, by the way.

    in my opinion, there's absolutely nothing offensive in this video. the fact that was removed, is what i find offensive. i suspect that what set people off is what you say from 06:50 - 07:30, which is said in an incredibly respectful way, but i can see how a narrowminded, bigoted "community" would see those as fightin' words, and that's really sad.

    and in regard to your posting vlogs here, please don't feel silly doing it. i love the wonderfully creative community here, but i feel like i learn so much when someone sits in front of the camera and shares a piece of themself.

    Leslie, oh that's encouraging!! Thanks for saying that! I do sometimes feel a bit intimidated by the amazing art that is posted here and here I am just rambling, lol. I've always been warmly welcomed here on Vimeo. It's one of my all-time favorite sites and the people I've met through it are superb!

    UPDATE: though the admin of LetsVlog has apologized and has reached out gracefully to remedy this situation, the insulting messages and members attempting to shame me continue to come in. Until that stops, I still consider this an issue that's worthy of a heads up to those who don't care to stumble into the lion's den of a Christian-centric site with no tolerance for anything or anyone beyond that limited mentality.

    Loonachic, eZactlee! I had no idea I would cause such an uproar. Some of us are just born trouble!
