[David responds] But Marsha you created an either/or juxtaposition between a 'natural/spontaneous' caring and 'bondage' caring. That was your juxtaposition, not mine. But what do you care about these juxtapositions that you create with your words right? They're only analogies… They aren't the underlying Dynamic Quality which is the source of all things.. No words can capture that. And who ever talked about authority? I just asked you about a statement you made. It's all very mystical and anti-authoritarian with you...
