Ah.  Thank you.  Your will is to tell me what to do. 

 

No ...  one's will is a different  thing to one's ' True Will '.   Thats the other 'big miss' . 

 

This misunderstanding seems endemic in modern 'western'  culture , so its no surprise people are misinterpreting as they do  ... even after explanation , it seems  .

 

 

My will is to ignore the majority of what you say because of the obvious double standard:  "do as I say, but not as I do."

 

That is a 'malignant psychological projection ' ;

 

" In its malignant forms, it is a defense mechanism in which the ego defends itself against disowned and highly negative parts of the self by denying their existence in themselves and attributing them to others  ... "

 

Its been known about and understood for some time now :    " Babylonian Talmud. pp. Baba Metsiya 59b, Kiddushin 70a. And he who [continually] declares [others] unfit is [himself] unfit and never speaks in praise [of people]. And Samuel said: All who defame others, with their own blemish they stigmatize [these others].

... and never speaks in praise ...

 

All the conditions need to be met in order to place me in this category.

This thread is off the rails. Actual, logical, kindly criticism is fine - even encouraged -  but what is happening here is too much. Daniel's intention is to take apart a text - his way. It's his thread. Let's allow him to do that please, without harassment and name-calling from either side. We have had enough complaints about this thread already. Give it a rest, please.
