The point is, the OP holds good in civil/residential life.

yeah, yeah. the young ones were ready to become convicted instead of convinced, again, it's coming and going in cycles ... ever learn anything (from history)?

We should feel no pride if we feel hatred by some. We should not actively seek to make people hate us. We should not feel justified by others' hatred.
I apologize SW, I agree with this statement but the other caught my eye.

Stop. Those roses have thorns of hate

"Truly I tell thee, the roses that come from me come from the father, and don't have thorns. But those from the pharisees and huckleberries are of this world and poke in kind. For what use is it for a man to acknowledge roses and not the thorns which lie underneath"

And the scribes and the pharisees who were hearing this raised a huge commotion. Certainly he is of the devil, they said to one another. And they receded to the atheist forum to plot his arrest and execution. And at this moment, the son of Man receded from the crowd and left the scene of chaos and commotion. His time had not yet come.

And this it fulfilled the scriptures, "C/D will be back soon. The server is too busy at the moment, please try again later."
