Exactly.. You come to a herd of Cats(FR) and expect to herd them up into a flock is silly.. No its not silly its utopian.. One thing is certain, come here(FR), and any subject can be thoroughly vetted.. I mean torn apart and rearraigned.. Thats a good thing I think.. I thionk of the 4 creatures in Rev ch 4 that are full of EYES.. before on the back and within..
Expecting undue respect HERE is fool hardy utopianism..
Good observation about the eyes! I think we could have politeness without “respect.” It’s sort of like the liberals’ trope of “hate.” In my opinion (culturally, rather than religiously) people can “hate” all they want, as long as they obey the law.
In the same way, here, we could privately think others are damned to Hell, totally insane, uncultured Yanks, or whatever we want, if we agreed (based on the premise of the thread) to use good manners.
