Who, pray tell David, is the 'projectionist'? Isn't it funny (strange) that your group sees in others the very thing(s) that the others see in your group?

I'm listening to a course 'New Rome': Christianity and Culture in the Byzantine Empire' It was/is ever thus. Like Pogo said 'we have met the enemy and the enemy is us"

Nice word, braggadocious, David. Once again, you
fail to note that it and, a variety of synomyms have
been used to describe YOU.

I have not failed to note that, Lance. Why do you think I am making a point
of it?  People often accuse others based upon their own problems and short
falls.  This is called projection.  Izzy has mentioned this several times,
but you guys just don't seem to get it. Jesus warned about it in Matthew 7
when he warned the hypocrites not to judge others.

The citation of names has naught to do with popularity,
David. It could but, it needn't. Do you not see that?

It seems to me that there is much more involved with why you guys exalt
yourselves and speak so highly about yourselves than you will ever admit in
this forum.

I actually know some of these people and I'd take their
evaluation of Judy over yours any day. (I still, FWIW,
see you as a person who doesn't know himself all that well.)

I expect nothing else from someone like yourself who does not know me, but I
think you are unwise to take their evaluation of Judy.  In fact, I think
this pastime of you and others to evaluate others is just plain sinful. The fruit of it is the tearing down of others rather than the building up of the
kingdom of God.

Explain please: 'I do not..claim..understanding' against
'I observe that you guys fail to understand' (meaning YOU
DO UNDERSTAND) Which is it? You do & we don't?
You don't & we don't? (maybe nobody but God does)

I said that I don't make any SPECIAL CLAIMS to understanding her. There are
times where I see you guys just don't get it, which I why I tried once to
mediate between Bill and Judy off the list to help bridge that
misunderstanding.

The truth is that none of us have a full and complete understanding of
anyone else on the list.  This is the kind of garden that God desires, so
that he might see who will walk in love, and who will gossip, deride and
fight with one another.

Peace be with you.
