Ha- I'm reminded of nothing so much as that stage of childhood that we all go through, and grow out of.

I can't honestly say I've been persecuted for my Christian faith.
But when I was in school I took learning disability classes and I got picked on pretty bad for being in LD classes,I was constantly being called retard and such.

Ha, funny how those people turn out the best...innit? And yes, you have suffered a form of persecution from your brethren here in AFF, the worst kind, I might have even dished some out ignorantly...it's just how people approach a new idea, with attack, lol...

I'm fairly thick skinned now,I understand if one proposes something different from Tradition one is subject to ridicule it's comes with the territory of being a Truth seeker.

Well, I think the ground is shifting, here, I see change coming. This is why I, at 50, pick a ridiculous phrase like "playmate" to attempt to describe my approach to people('s insights).
