Subject: [K-list] Can Humanity  ever come together ? 
From: J B
  
On 2000/10/13  06:03, J B posted thus to the K-list: 
 
To my posting "A guide to posting", I got a great variety of  
responses and opposing views(see below).  
I found this intersting.
 
What is the Significance of such variety ? 
Can Humnaity ever come together ?

PS. the 'guide' was essentially as a joke. And yet, it seems to me  
that the communication problem is rather serious. If we cannot find  
true communication, how can we expect that the Palestinians and the  
Israelis will ? They might come to an 'agreement', but it will be fed  
by reciprocal fear.

I get it!! I should defend them only because they are stupid, with no 
attachment to them at all, right??
 
Seriously, thanks for this good list of reminders. I love #12. You 
might add another: 
13. Don't unsubscribe from a moderated group in a fit of anger, and  
then 
subscribe again. It just makes more work for the moderator.

Thanks for that list. Especially No. 12 - I loved it

I am sending this back to the person who sent this.   Have you  
misunderstood your own posting??   This message could have been  
offensive?!    
Here is a post tip!   Post the things you feel,think,disagree,and  
agree about!   Nothing should offend anyone because we are all  
different.   Meaning we think and feel differently and that should  
most deffinately be accepted!   We should all have the understanding  
that the way a person feels or thinks is never wrong.   Having  
kindness for all people is the best way to apply yourself but it  
should not keep you from speaking your mind in fear of offending  
someone!

XYZ, you sent this to the whole list, not just the person who sent it.
 
It was a joke, no need to take offence. I have been around 
mailing lists long enough to see the humour in this. It is 
best to just delete posts which don't appeal to us.

13. Ignore guidelines 1 - 12. 
 
14. Speak from the heart. 
 
15. Wonder: what is the "heart"?

Dear JB,
 
Thanks for the guide.
 
Problem is that ppl. who need to know about this list have not read  
it yet, 
and even if you try to send it their way they do not receive it.  
There must 
be a special gremlin for that. 
Or when they receive it they think it applies to the other party. 
And ppl. who need a hint don't ever get it, do they?
 
A big part of the 'reclamation of the unattached, free, unconditional  
and 
fully loving and compassionate self' is that one has to go through  
all those 
things anyway. Before the chicklet exits the egg it has to break out  
of it, 
and it 'chickles' out of it all foolish, wettish and fumbled. 
So actually, I welcome ppl. who are daring enough to be stupid and  
dumb, 
offending the guidelines. It seems that they have to work through  
each one 
of them before they finally get it. It is like a steeple chase, but  
they 
knock over every obstacle in their way and get to the finish line 
nevertheless even after they themselves stumble over their own feet.  
If I 
would have prevented myself from trespassing any one of those  
wonderful 
guidelines, I would in fact not be what I am now. Gosh, who knows  
that I am 
now actually still trespassing... actually I know, and I will  
trespass... 
Every person who trespasses actually knows somewhere in themselves  
that they 
do trespass... but they allow it to happen because they can not even  
prevent 
if from happening. 
Love the flamed and the flamers. 
We go through spells here on this list. Has to do with the planets or 
something, full moon, solar flares, solstices, etc. 
This list is very good though in handling them... 
I think we fail when we lose a dummy in the end..., but luckily they  
often 
come back like a nicely groomed chicklet or cocklet... 
When we get the next dummy I would definitely not send him or her this 
posting guide, only at the very end of the struggle, when we are all  
on the 
ground gasping, with our tongues flubbeling for something cool to  
drink, 
might we send it... but then it is not needed anymore.
 
If you get to clean the can, you may expect shit to fly around...
