I don't think
Ohio was implying that you were a wolf. He was agreeing with
Igzy's self-identification as watching over the flock.
A lot of us on the forum don't see eye-to-eye on many things, both political and religious, but most of us "see Jesus" a la Hebrews 2:9 and it seems to be more than sufficient. Even those who don't see Jesus in the Christian sense, but rather see religious chains (which they want to break), have every right to share their opinion. Doesn't go very far sometimes, but I think Jesus taught this: If you want others to listen to you, then you have to listen to them. So we try.
"What you do unto others shall be done unto you." For the most part I see that played out here in a good way. Everyone has a voice. But I agree with the humour part - it can be very challenging to do it right. Even smilies don't help sometimes. (But when it works it's worth it!!)
(btw I apologize if my remarks on the "trinity" discussion thread were snide. I can't help myself sometimes, thinking I'm clever and sharp, and … maybe not so good.)
