Brother,

I feared you would take that as an - well not a rebuke but -- a sort of targetted admonition.

It really was just my observation. When one person says, "A" and another says,"If you can stand there and say 'A', obviously you are the kind of person who eats babies for tea," then something is amiss.

That's why I tried to back away from the conversation. My best guess is there's a fundamental failure to communicate" here.

When I worked a "beach ministry" (now THAT was a great job!) a zillion years ago, there was one guy who stopped by every day and asked, "How many people did you save yesterday?"

And I always answered, "I don't save people. Jesus saves people."

QX: Hey, Bro, happy to take your pontifications as targeted admonitions whenever they seem the least bit potentially fitting, fruitful and/or edifying--my choice--so there! LOL.

QX: INDEED. That's been obvious for quite a long time! LOL.

But, I'm not so dense as to assume that I'm going to be so brilliant, clever, gracious, anointed or whatever to get through . . . granite . . . constructions on reality.

I CONTENT MYSELF with using such obtuse, grossly convoluted and grossly hypocritical notions as foils to write truth to the LURKERS. LONG LIVE THE LURKERS.

But I greatly appreciate your sharing whatever admonitions you wish my direction. I like to learn and grow and OVERCOME my flaws instead of embellish and flaunt them--contrary to vast public opinion.

LUB
