Many harmful advice is given with good intentions.

You are talking about the responses here??? I didn't even read them before i replied. I'm speaking from personal experience and what i see in general not taking swipes at the responses here. Often i'll read the OP and respond just to that. Then later read the rest as i often respond in a rush.

What is right there in front of me.

I'd say that I was being out of line hahaha ;) ...and especially because I don't know you or "some people" personally ;)
And what about those "spiritual" people?... Whoever they are, it sounds like they may have gotten the short end of the stick there as well, in your opinion. : Tongue:

What are you talking about??? Sexually frustrated for disagreeing??? And who cares what end of a stick someone gets. Long end, short end, after all its just a stick. lol

That's the only good question you asked. Something worth pondering.

Does it have to make sense? Who says anything needs to make sense? And how do you know if i know the people i'm speaking of or not?

Absolutely. If anyone has judgments and opinions, negative or positive, about me. Whether true or untrue, they should share it with me.
