Who are you addressing?

Oops. I was addressing iano forehandedly and you backhandedly.

Apparently, the forehand doesn't know what the backhand is doing.

A philosophy generally contains concepts. The concepts provide the reasons for the practices.

But the concepts don't take precedence over the practices.
iano likes to confuse himself with concepts and pretend the practices are impractical.

I can't speak for iano but loving myself comes very easily to me. I've always loved myself, and I always will.

As I said, that's not the way you come across. (Maybe you just need more smilies.)

But it's not a merit, nor is it something I "learned."

Then maybe you should "learn" it. It seems to me you're doing it wrong.

The"Me" Decade

Anybody remember Al Franken's routines about the "Me" decade on SNL?
("How does that effect me - Al Franken?")

Why is it that a thread entitled "jar - On Cristianity" turns into "How does that effect me - robinrohan?"

One has to be at least present on the field of play before another can start considering how far wide of the goalposts that person is shooting.

You're confusing the players with the Referee.

The players don't get to decide whose goal counts.
