Canada Lines: 30 Xref: linus net.religion.christian:4834 talk.religion.misc:408 I want to offer my deepest apologies to Mike Huybensz and to any other's who may have taken offence to my sarcastic parody in response (especially to his article <1165@cybvax0.UUCP> mrh@cybvax0.UUCP ) or others that this may apply. My method was rude and flies in the face of what I believe and common courtesy. My anger overshadowed reason in leading me to ridicule his approach of criticism. I am ashamed that I did not take the warning of my heart when I let anger give the same life to the very things I shun - anger - rage - malice - slander of intent: being that I 'judged' his intent. I would feel deep sorrow if I gave any light to false impressions of those to whom I replied.... "Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble. Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you inherit a blessing." - Peter - Deepest regrets Mike Gore I deeply hope, as was quoted in this new group before that rather we all say: "I am pleased to see we have differences. May we together become greater then the sum of both of us." -- Surak of Vulcan PS: Just to clear something up I was cross posting to talk.religion.misc due to the unstability in net.religion.christian during the transition of a few weeks. -This idea I seem to remember was suggested a few weeks back....
