I wasn't even thinking of Christians when I posted that.Real Christians, yes. They are like real haggis eaters,
hard to identify.
So I'm curious (which is the main reason I was standing outside your window last night looking in. I'm curious. But that's another story), I'm curious what you think of authenticity, or being true to you? Any and all ideas welcome. Just want to understand your views, not debate them.
See you later on tonight!
It means that after you climb up to my window and peek in, I push you off, cut the rope on your safety harness, and drop a large potted plant on you. See you tonight!
Could it be that everyone (except for the occasional Poe) is authentic,I am I, no one else, the authentic me.
I don't see how anyone can be other than themselves unless there is some degree of dissociative identity disorder or they are playing to the crowd.
Could it be that everyone (except for the occasional Poe) is authentic,

to grok the others? It's a way to make the other the problem, eh.
On a long defunct forum, I was The Pope.Methinks it must take a lot of effort and a bloody good memory to be someone else. But i do often think, sheesh, is he/she real?

I took the job seriously....but improved his sense of humor.We have a pope here.
And i guess that even as the pope you were no one else but you. A read headed, haggis eating, jock, simsons fan and scrap iron collector?

But I'd rather avoid indicating which group stands out to me.
I prefer stating my preferences to claiming The Truth.Well, there are many versions of the Truth. Not just one. That is what tells me, that all should be checked for being subjective.

It's a moral relativist thing.

I recall there was endless speculation about which poster was
The Pope. Several were proffered, but no one suspected me at all.
