Re: If only it were so, DQ
I have been away from this forum for two weeks and I return to find it not only filled with politics, factious bigotry, condescension and name calling, but an increasing and shameless amount of criticism and ridicule of other people in order that the poster rescue their ego and conscience from the fire of their own insecurities.
I read the other posts and it seems that the name calling is finished. It never did serve any Godly purpose. No doubt, the resistance to retaliate to this "name calling" has frustrated you turiya, and you have become bold in your attempts to stir emotions and create controversy in order to inflate your pathetic ego.
The reason people concern themselves with other people's business (ideas, attitudes, opinions, behavior) is because their own business is nothing to be proud of (shameful/pathetic). Clean up your own act (pull the log out of your own eye) and carry your own cross (take care of your troubles YOURSELF instead of making your troubles someone else's) THEN you can follow Jesus...IF THAT REALLY IS YOUR INTENTION.
You may attack me if you'd like.
