V:
As soon as you take that first step to belittle and tear down another
you become a coward behind a keyboard.
You bloat your ego with pride a false sense of self worth.
You can find no happiness in being a perennial fiend of hostility and
shame Mark.

I don't project on others Mark.
I see what is.
We can learn from all sources.
The only thing I project is what the world would be like if it was
composed of all Mark K. Bilbo's.
Frightening thought ... isn't it.
Every action produces consequences and some of these actions produce
consequences that destroy our peace as well as destroy the inner peace
of others Mark.
Alan Watts use to say we define ourselves by our enemies. We define
ourselves by what we are not.
As a freethinker, I do not have enemies and am free to learn from all
sources.
Not so with many atheists and theists that must tear down anything
that does not originate from their ego.
Words do matter Mark.
People die over taking words too seriously.
People die over taking words not seriously enough.
Words give a glimpse of what our insides are like.
I make no demands that anyone stop using profanities.
I only bring their attention to the topic of right speech vs wrong
speech, but the direction is totally up to them as to which to take.
Eightfold path of Buddhism on Right Speech from net:
"Right speech is the first principle of ethical conduct in the
eightfold path. Ethical conduct is viewed as a guideline to moral
discipline, which supports the other principles of the path. This
aspect is not self-sufficient, however, essential, because mental
purification can only be achieved through the cultivation of ethical
conduct. The importance of speech in the context of Buddhist ethics is
obvious: words can break or save lives, make enemies or friends, start
war or create peace. Buddha explained right speech as follows: 1. to
abstain from false speech, especially not to tell deliberate lies and
not to speak deceitfully, 2. to abstain from slanderous speech and not
to use words maliciously against others, 3. to abstain from harsh
words that offend or hurt others, and 4. to abstain from idle chatter
that lacks purpose or depth. Positively phrased, this means to tell
the truth, to speak friendly, warm, and gently and to talk only when
necessary."

I guess you missed the A.A. meeting where they explained about
"denial"...

Not that you care. You still ***** all over this newsgroup every chance
you get.

Yes, you do.

Liar. You don't listen to anybody.

Projection.
Words do matter Mark.
Yet you use them carelessly, pouring tons of self aggrandizing dreck all
over multiple newsgroups.

Yes, yours do.
