By themselves they are afraid.

Trust me on this, my friend.
Why some human beings are so easily threatened is something I've wondered about

long before I discovered Red Hot Pawn. Probably a worthwhile idea for a gf thread.

Well obviously I hit the quick didn't I? Please try to understand the message. Hate the message not the messenger. Your response is a simple temper tantrum, a childish display of your true self. You lash out lamely against the one who posts the message but your anger is missing the true target. The truth...

And by the way, your fly is down... 🙂

Oh and by the way... you don't have to read his posts. You are simply laughable. At best laughable. Good luck in your future "endeavors"...

Save yourself the trouble, Bobby, we've heard it all before. People aren't "threatened" by you,
they're repelled. You're a windbag. In your self-absorbed little world, it's always a conspiracy
or a group of insiders bent on taking you down. I'd say most of the folks on this forum know
how to think for themselves. They don't need instructions on how to recognize a hypocrite.

Usually they come armed with name calling, like back in the old school yard days. Only then we settled those things very quickly. 😉

Really, most are not worth your time or effort!

Why do some people become so easily threatened? Immaturity, emotionally (not

rationally) oriented, lack of self esteem, subliminal fears, recurring anxieties may

all play a role. The major factor is usually the gnawing fear of being found out.

That's the kind of answer I expected.

Peter, not Judas, lied through his teeth to avoid being found out... "NO, I wasn't there with Him. He isn't my teacher. I'm not His follower. Later he hid from the crowds and wept bitterly. Of he did recover his sanity and went on to become an extraordinary early church apostle. Judas, also a student, betrayed Christ for thirty coins... then went to the nearest tree with his baggage of remorse and hung himself. Peter illustrates my point that fear of being found out is one of the greatest of all human fears. Whether you happen to like or dislike, ponder or dismiss the point is totally inconsequential. Truth is absolute and out there to be apprehended.

Not to worry, Bobs, not to worry. You'll never be that.

(Oh, by the way, your lamp post wasn't burning. And the support wasn't worth much, either.)

As always, SB, I respect your right to form, hold and express an opinion

responsibly whenever the spirit moves and your creative juices flow.
