Quote from: Trinity

In the first place slander is only slander if it's false. What I said was true, just as what Eamon said about SGG may have been true.

Detraction is an unjust disclosure of another's faults. I believe your "justification" for disclosure is hardly justifiable.

Quote from: Trinity

Eamon attacked me first...

The above isn't even true, but even so, it does not justify your behavior.

Loved the scene in Ann of Green Gables, where Ann said those horrible things to Marilla's lady friend, next door nosey neighbor, ( Rachel, I think) because Rachel called notice to her red hair. Ann lost her red headed temper; later Marilla forced her to go and apologize to Rachel. Ann dresses up and meets Rachel on the porch swing, and says. "I am sorry I said those aweful things to you, even if they were true, I shouldn't have said them anyway."

What a profound quote, and Rachel accepted the apology.

Bingo. I counted on you being astute. You always are. Do you suppose it would help if I said that, too? How, how, how do I get the message across?

FYI, I am a fan of that movie, too.

Thanks Trinity,

Although that was not a religious movie, I have never forgot that lesson, from that quote, and think of it often in my life.

It was a little comical, but had great significance.

People talk about humility but seldom manifest any.

Oh, I hope that changes very soon. How much better it is to stay close to the ground, than to fall from a great height.
