James,

Mark, I wasn't saying that it was ok for anyone to hate but I was trying to make a point that it is wrong to condemn a person and dislike that person because he happens to see things differently than you

Then I misunderstood, and I apologize for that.

To trust in man and man's word in matters of the soul is to a persons detriment.

I'm not sure that I agree with that. I think that sometimes we are the best determinants of what is in our soul. I know that looking inwards is very difficult and for some it is darn near imposssible at certain points in their lives. However, given the highly unique personalities that we all have, the different experiences we have had, and the differnt way we interpret those experiences, there is no blanket answer.

I think that the closest thing to a blanket answer or universal truth, is that at a deep fundamental level, we all need to be loved, to feel that someone cares for and understands us.

As for Emile, he brings it upon him self by his controversial comments. However, I will try to refrain from
posting about him, unless of course he posts something that I feel I need to address. I will try to look forward though and not backwards towards his old posts.

Mark
