Your words are very timely in that we should pray without ceasing. Always giving thanks. Doing onto others as we'd want done to ourselves. We are to be salt and light.

Yes, I can see that the Church handled things just fine and we can't improve on that.

But we're not martyrs and doormats and victims. We are children of the most high God, temples, good news bearers, priests and kings, provoking jealousy, wise as serpents and harmless as doves, in season and out, always ready with armor on as able soldiers.

I don't know what I'm trying to say here. I do receive your admonitions whole heartedly. I'm disappointed that humans can treat other humans with such disrespect and cruelty. I wish there were more I could do. I will do what works as you suggest.
