Very nice insincere words. Where was your kindness to Jake in your spurious attack on his masculinity? Not only do you judge others but you act as judge jury and executioner. The below statements suggest that those who live in glass houses should not throw stones. It appears when logic fails you you go straight for the jugular, that is you attack others personally, the lowest form of debate.

Friends,
Kindness must be in one's heart, much more than in one's outer shell
or visible personality.
I would like to extend an invitation to those who believe
that "nobody can judge or evaluate anyone else", and also to those
who use this popular but wrong saying as a shield to justify the
absence of moral or ethical choices.
Would these friends tell us whether they think the New Testament
Jesus is wrong, or if that Master is arrogant, or he behaves like a
bigot, as he says the words below?
In the New Testament, Jesus confronts the process of façade-building
and make-believe with these words:
"How terrible for you, teachers of the Law and Pharisees! You
hypocrites! You clean the outside of your cup and plate, while the
inside is full of what you have obtained by violence and
selfishness. Blind Pharisee! Clean what is inside the cup first, and
then the outside will be clean too!"(Mt, 23: 25-26)
And also:
"How terrible for you, teachers of the Law and Pharisees! You
hypocrites! You are like whitewashed
tombs, which look fine on the outside but are full of bones and
decaying corpses on the inside. In the same
way, on the outside you appear good to everybody, but inside you are
full of hypocrisy and sins."(Mt, 23:
27-28)
In that departament, there is no need to quote H. P. Blavatsky, as
she most often used a similar language with regard to whitewashed
appearances.
Best regards, Carlos.
