Earth from the space station, with Christmas narration

Thank you for your belittling me, Shimei.

2 Samuel 16:9-13 NLT - "Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king?" Abishai son of Zeruiah demanded. "Let me go over and cut off his head!" "No!" the king said. "Who asked your opinion, you sons of Zeruiah! If the LORD has told him to curse me, who are you to stop him?" Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, "My own son is trying to kill me. Doesn't this relative of Saul have even more reason to do so? Leave him alone and let him curse, for the LORD has told him to do it. And perhaps the LORD will see that I am being wronged and will bless me because of these curses today." So David and his men continued down the road, and Shimei kept pace with them on a nearby hillside, cursing as he went and throwing stones at David and tossing dust into the air."

There's more of that there vituperation stuff.

Sure. You're writing of yourself. Now please, if my opinion bothers you, report me and then stop bothering me.

Why do you get so offended?
Do you ever think that maybe people get offended by you but choose to keep it to themselves?

Why do you think that I'm offended? Don't you think that you're going about your being offended by me in the wrong way? It seems to me that you should be asking the alternate party this question.

Well, of course. But is this what happened within the body of this thread? Or shall we continue down this road of hypocrisy? From your words, it is apparent that you haven't realized the mild assault (upon me) from the alternate party.

Now, do you have any further criticisms that you'd like to extend to me? Have at it. It doesn't bother me at all.
