You posted a statement on a statement analysis site. One in which you have encouraged, requested, and analyzed your readers responses. You've taught your readers "the subject is dead, the statement is alive". You've ingrained the search for the "expected". You've created a highly active open site, for better or worse. This statement became like a meaty bone for the pack to attack. <br /><br />Respectfully, I suggest you take into account the nature of the site and the commenters before you post something this sensitive and open it to responses. <br /> Always Curiousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-12854016404961822362014-03-01T12:19:31.577-05:002014-03-01T12:19:31.577-05:00As I wrote my opinion on the poem, I realized that...As I wrote my opinion on the poem, I realized that I interpreted almost all of the lines to have a religious meaning. I assume that someone who did not have a religious background might look at the lines and see something completely different. I still think it's apt, as Terry Elvis is obviously a religious man..but it's still interesting to consider. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02680510856590830567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-28399858851750220822014-03-01T11:38:40.038-05:002014-03-01T11:38:40.038-05:00"It's hard to feel like you're doing ..."It's hard to feel like you're doing your job as a father," Terry explained to News13.

I don't think the man in black would mind Terry borrowing his words. Its for men like Terry that Johnny wore black for, average guys that life has done dirty...the little people looking for justice and peace. The simple fact that Heathers dad has pushed and begged and bartered with a silent God and he still has hope and he's not giving up...well ladies, youre criticizing a hero. I respect your opinions but quick kicking the poor guy. Everything I've read that Terry Elvis has written has been what I would expect from any parent in his position : confusion, terror,anxiety, anger, desperation, sadness,pain...let Terry Elvis be.

A New Englander about to be snowed in :) I really enjoy reading your posts, and you have a really keen ear for detecting inconsistencies. That is very hard to do, because there is so much to keep track of in these cases, and I noticed you have the ability to do this as you showed on the other thread. It would be extremely useful here, as it is so important for detecting deception! I don't think Peter was directing it at you. I think Peter's patience for me probably runs thin at times, and I guess I can't say I blame him. No hard feelings on my end.

What?!?! <br />There actually are signs of deception from Terry Elvis in the story he wrote for xojane. I also noticed in the radio interview, one of his responses contained signs of deception. <br />This is about the poem though. I will gracefully leave, as I don't want to come across as cruel. I simply do not feel the poem as so many do. I feel nothing when I read it, not because I don't care about Terry Elvis's feelings, it is because I cannot follow the feeling in the poem. When I started reading it, as with any poem, you are looking for that emotion to grab onto, and I just couldn't find it. I literally do not understand what the poem is about. I apologize if there is something in me terribly flawed that has made me unable to understand or feel the poem. I will not comment about this case anymore as I do not want to say anything else that could or would be hurtful if this is what I have been doing. I am sorry.<br />Maggienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-51915911270171764922014-02-28T21:08:35.814-05:002014-02-28T21:08:35.814-05:00I called him a plagiarist but it was in the cotext...I called him a plagiarist but it was in the cotext of sayin I could say that but I didn't think it mattered. it was meant as a light hearted joke. we were readin gthe poem thinking he wrote it -- and then realized otherwise - it's notmal to react. however i'm quite sure there's no laws about using song lyrics without giving credit on facebook. it;s not technially plagarim if it's just on facebook. there's no accusation meant there. <br /><br />I can see I'm upsetting you though.

He said Terry Elvis wrote the poem.<br />Jen Ow--Yes, having a sadistic sociopath as one of my parents may be clouding my judgement, in that it may bias me towards being skeptical towards those who appear too good. As far as my instincts in interpreting statements, they are sound. I would even go so far as to say, they are good. I feel poetry deeply--when I read this poem I felt nothing. I could not follow what the feeling was or what the feeling was about. When I detected the poem was not heartfelt I was correct. The poem was not generated by his heart. Outside of all of this, why doesnt anyone find it odd that this poem is not really about Heather until the very last lines? <br />Why is his focus on overcoming his hatred for the Moorer's? <br />I will say this, he is either an extraordinary man who is a much better person than just about anyone I've ever known, or he is hiding something.Maggienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-50740914585067457432014-02-28T19:43:46.662-05:002014-02-28T19:43:46.662-05:00Sus said, "Johnny Cash plagiarized from the B...Sus said, "Johnny Cash plagiarized from the Bible!!"<br />Hahahahahaha,, You made me laugh so loud I startled my dog!<br /><br />Jen Ow said, "I can't understand why you are so adamant and persistent in your belief that Terry Elvis is a bad guy. His statements have been analyzed with no deception indicated, he has appeared on the radio show, he has vigorously persued finding his daughter and punishing the people responsible for hurting her, (to the point of much MORE criticism) and he has displayed an enviable amount of humility and resolve in the face of the greatest tragedy imaginable for a parent."<br />I started and erased so many posts trying to put these words together. You have a gift for clarity and compassion Jen. Terry Elvis is a good father and a good man. He never said he wrote the words so we can't claim it for him. <br />We move from our experiences. If the only father experience you have is very damaged it will affect your analysis. Same for any relationship I suppose. I think the more a person is healed and free in relation to others the better analyst they can be. I think about the people here that I see "hit the mark" consistently and they are humble, humorous, compassionate people. They call a spade a spade, but are respectful.Red Rydernoreply@blogger.com
