You added the faith based/traditional values designation late in the day and now are pressing it quite hard. Do we need to start over or do you want to go with the original? Brees, the original was the questioned I framed for you. I asked you: "Then, if you would, please define what exactly you mean by the two groups of people." I expected you to respond that PMP was faith and tradition based. I didn't want to bias your response by feeding you what I thought your answer would be. I asked, instead, an open question. To which you responded, on cue, "Persons who recognize that there is basic truth in what is right and what is wrong regarding the human condition... Persons who have faith, yes faith; that living according to these principles is justified though the wholeness of time. " So I confirmed that in my response. I didn't designate it late in the day. It was always there. I was simply allowing you to say it first and in your own words. My facilitation training at work. Here is your original charge: And it wasn't a charge, it was a framed question.

You identify a category of people who live by principle and morals. I'll just call them the PM people, or PMP for short. I'm glad you re-quoted that. Really, if that's all that defines PMPs, we're ALL PMPs. Everybody lives by some principles, even if it's just the principle that "anything I want to do I should do," and everyone lives by some set of morals, even if their moral belief is "if it feels good, it is good." So that alone won't do as a distinguishing difference between anybody.
