This is not what I said at all.
I said that sometimes, those pointing the finger are making matters worse because they do it to harm rather than help.
The "love" by hating, and call "loving" hatred.
The World According to You is not to listen to anyone except those who agree, to parrot what you have been taught, to mock, to belittle... That's your path. Good luck on it.
As a Buddhist, we encourage one another to point out our weaknesses and faults, so that we may live better lives and make the world a better place. We do with humility, and we do so for the edifucation of one another. It's my preference of treating people.
Can I correct my neighbor? When my house is clean, sure. I must approach with humility. I must point something out to make them grow, not condemn them. If I say I feel love for them, but correct them out of spite, out of self hatred or insecurity, if I secretly enjoy hurting them, I say more about myself than them. But I must be encouraging of positive things they do, and look at them as teacher as well as student. God talks through whomever he chooses, so listen always.
Do whatever you want as long as it doesn't hurt you or your neighbor? That's a pretty generic way that all religions act.
Wicca says, "Do what thou wilt, and harm no one."
Christianity says, "Love your neighbor as yourself."
Think about trees? :chuckle:
When I walk under trees and watch them blow in the wind, yeah, I think about trees, how they look like they are dancing when the wind blows, with their arms up, reaching toward the sun, reaching toward God.
Yeah. I think about trees.
