After watching the video, one might say:
“Hey, this guy is supposedly all about being non-judgemental and here he is (from his high tower) ...."

In Ch. 2 of The Bhagavad Gita, it (very truthfully, IMO) says:

"As a man can drink water from any side of a full tank, so the skilled theologian can wrest from any scripture that which will serve his purpose."

The video exemplifies such abuse[/u] of a supposedly transcendental philososhy to 'support' (jusfify?) a grossly immature male-chauvinistic attitude and positionality.

The 'girlfriend' referenced very sanely IMO dumped the fella because he had no appreciation (IMO) of what mutual commitment in 'marriage' is functionally all about. His (make) 'friend' clearly betrayed (abdicated?) the 'promise' implicit in his agreeing to 'marry' his wife.

The kind of moral 'relativism' wherein anything goes and everything is 'judged' to OK - its all just 'God' acting - is thee xpression of a transparently immature eternal Peter Pan who just wants to be perfectly free to do whatever he wants to do and not grow - the is the absurdity of boyish 'sophistry.

Any mature man can 'see' this.

Label what I articulate 'discernment' or 'judgment' or anything else you wish - as far as I am concerned it is simly (finctionally!) callng a 'spade' a 'spade'.

Why is this not obviously the case (case closed!) to the everyone here? I am wondering, is this place seen as a completely response-ability absolving 'safe' haven for "I am just as 'godly' as anyone else no matter what I choose to do or not do" refugees from common-sense morality? Not as long as I am around, it won't be, I say! Sheesh!!
