Can we please keep the insults and ad homs out of this thread. Once they start, they are very rapidly adopted as the norm. One attack leads to a counter-attack and it's then a slippery slope from there on. No one wins, no one gains. Other members and visitors are turned off and any strength the argument has is diminished by such inflammatory remarks.
Whatever your private thoughts are about other members, keep them to yourself please.
It was quoted from someone else. I don't make such attacks usually. I do believe in civil discourse.
I'm glad Jeffrey. Thank you. Civil discourse is the only meaningful way to proceed for forums like ours.
Flaming attacks advances the arguments backwards. :

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
