Again, you are telling all sorts of stories about what might happen if you answer the question. Maybe consider that answering the question is the present moment step to take for now, and then see what emerges after that. It's just a question, what's the worst that can happen by answering clearly? Do you believe that animals can suffer? Your question is not working for you, Andrew. Its become almost robotic. If you're satisfied with that, so am I. Well it is robotic because it is repetitive. If it is the case that you don't want to answer, then say so. Say, 'I don't want to answer'! Otherwise, please answer.

lol precisely...it is my interpretation, I can only guess if you hint, which is why I am asking for you to be clear. Can you be clear please? Can animals suffer? Go away little man. Again, you have to live with yourself after this conversation, my unasked advice to you is to watch what you say. Is that your way of saying 'I don't want to answer'? If I was to search forum history, would I discover examples of you answering a question simply and understandably?

Sorry pal, I don't take my marching orders from you. without a clear response from you, it's hard to know if you are just being difficult, or if you have no intention of answering the question. Again I am left wondering why it is so difficult for you to be direct, but my guess is that it is some kind of masculine pride thing. Like...you see forum conversation as sport, with winners and losers or something.

Attend to your own inner health and happiness. Silently. Okay, so you don't want to answer because you believe the question is ignorant? Have I got that right?

If I was to search forum history, would I discover examples of you answering a question simply and understandably? No, it's my way of saying enough is enough. That would be like the third time I've expressed that. I'm very aware of what I'm saying to you. And is saying 'enough is enough' your unclear way of saying, 'I don't want to answer that question'? Again, the lack of clarity in your forum communication is astonishing given how well you communicate in private. I am sure you treat forum conversation like sport. You pick a team to support, are extremely loyal to that team, and whenever anyone from the other team asks you a question, you deflect it as if answering the question would somehow make your team lose. It's masculine ego. I haven't had the experience before of being on the opposing team to you, but I'm not blind to your forum manner over the years, and I think I am correct that you just don't answer questions you are asked by the opposing team.

Like...you see forum conversation as sport, with winners and losers or something. No, what I'm seeing is a conversation that isn't worth having. Hey, seriously, you've shown your true colors here. Unfriending people, repetitive questions to get your point across, and as a result has become meaningless, questioning masculinity, etc, ad-nausea. I know how much it means to 'you' to have the last word, to be right. It's been on display all evening. Go to a bar and have this conversation with a patron there. Badger him repeatedly like your doing with me. Get your point across at all costs. Then come back tomorrow and tell us all about it. You know where you can put your attention seeking behavior. Again, you haven't answered the question. I actually don't think you CAN answer a question on a forum. I don't think you have that capacity, the context of a spiritual forum doesn't support you in answering a question. So, that much I have learned, even if I haven't learned whether you believe animals suffer or not.

Has your life really become that much of a tiring drudgery? as above. Another deflection from answering a question.

OMG. Look who's talking. Again. Does it ever stop? Is there a specific question you would like me to answer? At the moment, your questions of are the dreaded double bind kind, but I'm fine to answer a question you want an answer to.

Again, you haven't answered the question. You won't answer any question directly will you? Again, I'm not interested in what you're applying, and implying here. Go ask your repetitive questions of someone who's clarity you respect. I can think of at least ten people I'd rather be talking with than 'you.' Don't you have any friends? That's such a funny thing to say Ten people no less! Wow you know how to mix with the big players. You have TEN people you would rather talk to than me. (I've given up asking you a question because I believe now that you CAN'T answer)

as above. Another deflection from answering a question. If that helps you rest soundly tonight, so be it. You know deep down you have to be right. Sometimes I do, yes, but not because I am intrinsically interested in being right. Intrinsically, I couldn't give a shiny shite about being right.
