I think that if we follow Jesus teaching we treat each other as we would like to be treated.

And particularly on an internet forum like this, we should treat each other with courtesy and respect - as we would wish to be treated.

This doesn't mean we cannot disagree, but we can disagree without being disagreeable - if you get the difference.

Charity, humility and patience. Sometimes I think God created internet forums to teach us patience - or at least give us the opportunity to learn it.

One last thing. I was taught that if I am angry at someone, there is something in me that I need to look at. Quite often I find the same thing in me that I am angry at in another.

thanks for your posts and the thread...

Re: If you spot it, you got it.

I have heard some quotes from "A Course in Miracles" and that was one of them. Are you familiar with this course?
