Hey guys - I respect you both as posters. I now regret my part in the previous thread. It was too close to the part of me that still hurts.

I hope that we can just forget about it, and realize that everyone has a different experience.

Shining,

W/O getting into all that happened on that other thread, I just don't quite understand why you would call TR out & when he tries to ask you the questions again that you want him to clarify his thinking for you, you sidestep the questions & think that he's wanting you to agree w/him no matter what. If you would know TR at all, you would know that's not his way.

You call him arrogant. Not quite sure why. Those of us that know TR as a friend, know this to not be true at all. He's quite the opposite actually. He just feels very strongly about certain things & likes to take a stand for them. There's nothing wrong w/that. If he asked these questions, it's b/c he truly wants to know your views. Doesn't mean he won't disagree w/you, but he'd sure like to know why you feel the way you do.

From the way I read it, here & on the other thread, he was just asking a legitimate question. You answered:

Quote
Just what is it that you somehow think I have to defend?
Do I somehow have to justify my thinking to you? That is the epitamy of arrogance!


IMHO, I don't believe that TR was asking you to DEFEND anything. Simply posed a question to you on why you would want it revealed to you but yet you would not do the same for her. He quite simply does not understand that logic, hence, he called it uneven thinking.

Arrogance just simply is not a part of TR at all. He's one of the most humblest spirits I know.
