I am sure that many of the women on this forum would disagree with you that starting a sentence with the word "Lady" isn't an insult. It sounds rather patronising and condescending.

I feel that this quote expresses quite well some of my feelings about religion and spirituality.

"Accept my words only when you have examined them for yourselves; do not accept them simply because of the reverence you have for me. Those who only have faith in me and affection for me will not find the final freedom. But those who have faith in the truth and are determined on the path, they will find awakening." - Buddha
Richard I did NOT write this blog nor title, I simply replied..same as you did,
so that gives you the right to be disrespectful??? Hmm.. interesting logic you've chosen..I don't see it..and the tone & way you started and ended your replies to me as "Lady" was taken and obviously intended to be insulting. You actually wrote in reply to me in justification for being rude...again I say, not very peaceful nor respectful...is your choice Richard, to be or not to be. As is mine in reply telling you I felt was rude...
Very well put, and is exactly how I see it..but since I'm the one being referred to as "Lady" and not by my name , well an sure any comment I make in agreement with your intelligent reply will be viewed as a "conspiracy against" Richard....sad very sad indeed...
I think you really need the words of other people. More than half of your coments are about thanking other people who disagree with Richard So conspiracy or not I don't think what you are doing is nice.
actually in a post I did explain my "agreeing" and "thank you's" and none had anything to do with disagreeing with Richard, never even entered my mind. I simply write where I see something well said and I then say so.. If you read ALL my comments, I have clearly said why..
And that what was the most important to me was Tolerance and peaceful dialog.
I did not post lengthy descriptions of my beliefs as I was trying to point out that not valid to any one but me. I only replied in length to Richard after he began insulting me. For ,well not agreeing with him.
For me the demons or the enemies lie within all of us and can be seen when we look in the mirror to find the causes of our own ignorance.
Dear Des
How many causes of ignorance have you found by looking in the mirror? I think what you say is not practical although it was a nice way to use the words.
The words are metaphorical Mahmoud. When we are able to express ourselves and reflect upon ourselves in a truly honest manner (which isn't easy to do) then we can perhaps see our own weaknesses and limitations more clearly.
Why may I ask are you replying to Des's questions and not that of mine,a woman ? ya' know the one you call "Lady" which if said in a different tone & setting I would take as a compliment,as I am a Lady..

Ach! never mind, 'tiss obvious to me that there is no point in attempting to have any kind of civil peaceful dialog with you. I'm not one to waste my time on such things that simply is not worthy of expending any more of my energy on. I do have other things to do...and have wasted enough energy on trying to understand your hostility. and to attempt for you to understand my intent is/was to simply say that arguing,disrespecting & in Tolerance is not a road to global unity..really was my only reason for commenting in the 1st place.
A hope & desire for respectful kind and Tolerant dialog,globally....it's just not possible. Sad ,as I had just a bit of hope left it might be possible..
To All ..many blessings of Love and Peace..
Do I call anyone "hypothetical"? I seem to recall the word "metaphorical" when referring to my own writing, but have no idea where you have gotten this word from in my writing. Please quote exactly what you are referring to in my words.

Richard, you may think that we are naieve on here and cannot see your words for what they are.
You insulted someone and the only person who cannot see this is you....

Let me post what you wrote to remind you of what you said:

"Lady, go and find somebody else to chew on. You're in illusion and don't know it.

Clearly rude and insulting remarks. If you can't conduct yourself in a civil manner without attacking people then perhaps you should remain silent until you can behave like an adult. Perhaps an apology would be a good start?
Contrary to what you are saying Richard, I have no issue at all with what Mahmoud said. It sounds like a simple misunderstanding in terms of language and communication. I agree with his comments about the mind and awareness.
Okay Richard, so first kind remark made to me by you.."Ahhh, dear Leah, you are in pain, and I wish that you could be free from it." and then well went totally down hill from there..
1st of all..The tone & context of Hey "Lady" was obviously intended as rude and in anger.
2ndly my comment above clearly said "which if said in a different tone & setting I would take as a compliment,as I am a Lady." ...from there well Huh? " please don't drag mark of the beast", blah blah... huh ?...and what? Is just absolute nonsense..to me.
"And I should mention that Mahmoud has been suggested as being a made-up person, when Des has called Him 'hypothetical', ...um no actually he did not...Des left a quote, Mahmoud asked a question..Des replied by clarifying the meaning of quote was meant to be " metaphorical" you know a metaphor? this in no way had anything to do with 'hypothetical' ...nor implying it was about Mahmoud, Des was answering the question,explaining the meaning of quote. In no way intended to insult,hurt nor imply anything negatively to Mahmoud, also in no way did I.
Mahmoud commented to Me, I clarified my intent and answered to best of my ability, respectfully.

"You may wish to discredit yourselves, but leave Mahmoud alone. " This your words
Richard is just not true, I think YOU are one discrediting yourself..and I will not in any way now nor ever take orders from you Richard! So,stop ordering me about and maybe, just maybe We can respectfully speak. 'till this time,if ever ..I wish no further discussion with a nutter like you that believes has any rights to do so.

It does however sadden me that Mahmoud is or was in any way hurt, as not my intent nor that of Des...if reading this Mahmoud please accept my apologies Mahmoud if I in any way offended You, this dear one never ever was my intent not what I would do ever,intentionally.
and understand that Des was explaining the quote was a metaphor..not literal,nor what Richard said as "hypothetical' these are to different meanings,entirely.
Sorry, I am off to sleep now and to tired to add the definitions.

The rest of your reply/comment to me Richard is just conjecture,opinion and total bollocks...imo...
.I am tired, I tried talk with you respectfully but you continue to judge and belittle me, so against my better jugdement I am saying to you, this time what I really think of your rantings..the rest I am thinking I am to polite to write to you, as I will not stoop any lower to your level....Go in peace and hope that you chose to see me as who I truly am, not who you have judged me to be..
I know who and what I am, quite content in knowing my purpose on this plane of existence.and before was born to this body.
I do not fear YOU , I do not fear death, the rest is but my own knowledge and beliefs, no one else needs to know but me.
