ORIGINAL: Mercnbeth The legend of the "Sacrifice of Abraham" is often used as a reference when this topic is discussed. Everyone should keep in mind that in reality Abraham's son was NOT sacrificed. The is no power, including a burning bush, that would get me to even consider such a sacrifice of beth. We would have never journeyed up the mountain in the first place. I appreciate this information. It's becoming clear where these conversational problems are coming from. If there are two very, very different definitions of the phrase "No Limits" that are both operating simultaneously in this community, the fact that the two definitions directly contradict one another would naturally generate a lot of chaos. Those of us who don't use this label in our own lives are having it defined by others we meet, who call themselves "No Limits" and then give us a definition of the term and the relationship it implies. When the people who use the phrase contradict each other about its meaning and implications, there's no way an outsider can avoid confusion. i think this sums up the entirety of the problem. There are some and i would suggest most, who label themselves as no-limit when what they mean is i don't need to have limits of my own that put boundaries on my Dominant, because i trust in the limits that He or She puts on him or herself so i am safe, no real harm will come to me inside of this relationship. There are others who when they call themselves no-limits do not mean that at all. They really do mean that anything can be done to them not only including actual harm, but especially actual harm, because there is some part of their psyche that wants actual harm done to them. i have met a couple, but not many who would fit in that category. But because two divergent groups of people are using the same term and are meaning two entirely different things by the term, it can and does cause confusion. heartfelt
