My point in invoking christianity is that J.T. is a Christian, and I believe that Jesus would not only look at the organization's side, but the powerlifter's side..In fact, Jesus was notorious for leaning towards the underdog (the poor, sinners, and lepers)..Leaving the bible out of this discussion because it seems to ruffle feathers, people only know one side here and making claims, accusations, and whatever, isn't and will never be fair.. You don't get it, do you?? It's not that I am discrediting your side of the story Job, but all people have heard is YOUR side...I"m saying people need to hear both from Tucker and NASA before they make an informed decision...Honestly, am I supposed to discount/discredit another man who has been loyal to NASA for years because you say I should?? Because you are an Executive Committee member and Terry isn't, by default I must believe your version of what transpired only???? Sounds a little facist, doesn't it??? I question the process of gleaned information on these forums, not the version of stories...Even when somebody is tried for a crime, our system says we must look at both sides; hence a prosecution and a defense...Terry is no criminal, but the law understands that there are two sides to a situation. Just giving people anecdotes about people that "don't know but think they know" doesn't resolve why people are making one-sided assumptions. And once again, like I told J.T., you are an executive committee member and it's going to be difficult for you to be fair on this, whether you want to be or not; you have an allegiance to the organization, more so than the other lifters. Your words are going to be filtered. What I worry about is now that I've expressed my point of view, am I going to be banned, am I going to be banned for having an opinion that differs from the upper echelon?? I like NASA and have enjoyed lifting here, but I'm not always going to agree with what the organization is doing? I don't on this one? Job if you are looking for a robot, I'm not it...I do have opinions...You freely express yours without my approval or disapproval.
