Oh, I’d be happy to receive a nugie from you most anywhere Bro.

YOu have long had a special place of affection in my HEART!

I do think there’s something . . . DIFFERENT about the venom the last 2-3 weeks.

Qualitatively, frequency, and intensity of venom. Quite intriging in one sense; quite disturbing in another.

And the lack of capacity to discrimminate regarding relative types, motives, qualities, degrees, intensities, foci etc. of dislike, anger, revulsion, aversion, hostility, . . . then venom, blood lust, personally-by-the-jugular-murderous hatred etc . . . long a problem with some folks as we’ve noted on occasion . . . sometimes on all sides of all issues . . . but sometimes, it seems to be an almost genetic incapacity with some folks.

They virtually NEVER seem able to walk on by some sorts of opinions or perspectives without lashing out in the same spirit of the religious leaders 2000 years ago plus some evil added on, if that’s possible.

Then there’s the kind of haughty presumption of ‘DIVINE RIGHT OF HOLY SANCTION TO BE BLOOD-LUST-HATE-FILLED-NASTY’ in behalf of THE INSTITUTION and all that nonsense.

You well know that I’m easily prone to being quite fierce and even quite fiercely mocking, derisive, satirical about issues, themes, opinions, perspectivevs . . . stances . . . and sometimes, even absurdly outrageously hypocritical persons.

However, I think you also know, that even the most hateful of my oponents still has a lot of my affection and caring and concern for their spiritual health. I don’t see much of a shred of something similar on the other side for at leats some of the cliques of fiercely rabid Vatican affiliates.

Some of my cohorts believe it’s related to fear.

Probably. ATTACHMENT DISORDER generated fears foster a lot of junk as we’ve shared before.

But why the sudden escalation in the levels of venom etc.?

I still think there’s a demonic component at work somehow. And I’d like to know what it signifies. I just don’t know. Puzzling.

Anyway—I miss seeing your posts around.

I think the two articles that got picked up and published by your cohorts are magnificent. Besides that, IIRC, I had no trouble saying AMEN TO THEM.
