Subject: And yet again,,virtue and vice...

>Well, here's the point , my friend, A master does say:" Love G'D above all
>things , and treat thy neighbor as thyself."

Dear Friend,
                       That would be:
shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and
with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

Bruce points out a good application of considering vices and virtues.
Our initial reply about looking beyond those gravitating local vices and 
virtues was inspired by the analogy of the beginning golfer who became so 
caught up in the details of his position, hand position , swing angle, sight 
perspective , balance equations , sight adjustment , etc, that the ballwas 
lost sight of completely and missed the ball entirely. So it was to 
initialize an old sports axiom to "Keep your EYE on the ball" that our post 
was rendered.
Thank's for the replies.
