I have to wonder sometime what exactly goes through the minds of people. Especially the self deceptions and the double standards they seem to have. Deceiving one’s self is probably the worse kind of lying one can commit. But in the course of my investigations I keep running across people with little grasp of reality, a strange notion that insulting people or killing the messenger is going to somehow gain them any kind of respect. Name calling and belligerence is OK so long as it’s against someone they disagree with. Purposeful misrepresentation of the facts is all right so long as it’s for a good cause.
These things are never OK. Not even if you have a beef. It’s far better to direct one’s issues with the offending party and drop the whole thing when the message is delivered. Much less drama that way but people in the believe community seem to disagree.
