- I thought I was the only one...
- A pain I know all too well....
- So this is what it's like... when doves cry...
On the other hand (and I haven't thought too much about what exactly this implies; I've been awake a little too long - which makes me invulnerable to criticism),

Adumb:
I was not aware that Funk and Wagnall's was a psychology text or a psych dictionary. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
Nor was I aware that medical texts were authorities on Jungian psychoanalysis.
You're a smart cookie, Adumb. A moron like me might make the assumption that one should use psychology dictionaries when talking about psychology, but obviously you're better than silly little rules of common sense.

As I said, my psych textbook has been borrowed, you will have to wait. Until then, perhaps reading through some of your recent posts might assist you in learning something about psychology.
Here I do you a favour: take a deep breath or two, calm down, and really look at the material you have been posting over recent weeks. Childish does not begin to describe it. Any credibility you may once have had is long vanished. Calm down, start thinking, and perhaps try to get some back.

Adumb:
There is this magic website called "Google" on this magic thing called the internet.
I'd advise you to look into it.
I haven't been so insulted since 4th grade when Tommy Tucker called me a "doodyhead".
You're a real smartie pie, Adumb.
I am calm.
Well, actually, I just got in from running not long back, so my pulse is likely a little elevated.
Dumbass.
A: I doubt so. I think that if I had no credibility, I would be ignored by our more intelligent members. This is not the case.
B: I don't care. The subject of what others think of me is a matter of monumental non-importance to me, although I do confess to a certain masochistic delight in the opprobrium and condemnation of morons.

So, back to the original thought. I tend to tryto "love" the person as if I know them. I hate their words, deeds, the results of their hateful actions. I know if I met a person I at first want to hate I would eventually not hate them. I have learned this from past experiences--I have thought I hated people, but when I stopped long enough to cool my brain, I actually did not like their actions. If I talked to them long enough I found that it was not the damaged soul who perpetrated the actions who I hated, but the actions themselves. Of course, there are those individuals who will not communicate in any way except to hurt me, so that is where my sense of justice comes in, and I cease communications with that person. I don't believe in letting people continue to hurt myself or others, I just give them a chance/chances to talk to them, find out if they are willing to show why they are being so hateful, then if they are willing I will love them as my fellow human being. If not, they must be PUNISHED *cracks whip*

Adam,
Call me MISTRESS!
Call me MISTRESS!
I thought I made it quite clear when I said "We'll never be able to know someone in their quintessence" The truest image of a person cannot be known; maybe we'll get good glimpses of it once in a while, but, as you said, we can't know 100%.
I think this is just a matter of my diction. I should've used words that were less all-encompassing. My English teacher even circled examples in one of my papers, which said "All humans are evil". My bad.
Xev: I think Adam's just irked at you calling him "Adumb"...which is a little childish, I must admit, IMO.
