I always understood that as Sam's way
of agreeing with one, while convicting
another. I don't even have to ask him;
he was not sarcastically belittling anything,
except judgemental 'standard'ized attitudes.
I'm lucky, I guess, in that I have not found
any of the Apostolics you mention; all the ones
I have known were sure human enough
See how premises are revealed here,
all while broadcasting TIC agreement with you,
and just a light poke at some faceless standards.
You might read this with your other eye.
