In #61 I wrote: "Those are the pharisical mentalities who love to "accuse others" of not measuring up to what God *requires* to "be pleasing in his sight.

Those are the guilt-ridden elitists who project their guilt on others by trying to lay guilt-trips on them .... burdening them with burdens that they, themselves can't / won't, bear."

And when Jesus said the same thing to the Pharisees [Matt 23:4; Luke 11:46], they replied, "If it makes you feel guilty, you might ask yourself why."

First, you label a whole lot of people who wear bracelets - and you can't possibly know them all or even a significant number of them. Now you have labelled me.

Well, I know some people who wear the W.W.J.D. bracelets and they don't fit the mold of your paragraph as quoted above. They aren't interested in laying guilt on anybody. They just want to live out their Christian walk in the best way they know how. But you have labelled them and apparently your mind is made up so I guess you know them better than I do.

Shalom.
