Yes, children, there is. Stop tossing the adolescent and spiked verbal

abuses. Just cease and desist with them. Avoid the temptation to go for the

barbed assault or clever quip if it will be insulting or derogatory...keep it

objective whenever possible rather than personal. I understand that this is

sometimes a fine line, and that a quip can be intended as harmless and still

cause hurt, and that some people are more sensitive than others. I am not

suggesting that humor, and a lively exchange of opinions and ideas should be

censored, but there really is no place for the juvenile stuff and everyone

knows

what this is, everyone...no excuses...why insult everyone else on the list,

including embarrassing Harsha who has tried with such patient dignity to allow

tremendous freedom of expression so long as it is not meant to be insulting?

 

I have been keeping careful count of the points. You have both lost equally

well, should be equally proud/ashamed and so from this point on, let's all

joke in good nature, not ill will, and move on.

 

We might all be one and all that, but I recall Krishna's advice to Arjuna

about getting too caught up in pacifism and the wrongness of killing in war, and

Krishna pointed out that an even higher calling was the defeat of evil or

wickedness, as this would spare countless millions more undue suffering. So,

please, end the wicked behavior and spare the llist countless millions of

moments of undue suffering, OK?

 

Love,

 

Zenbob
