at the minimum it is more disrespect for the other person, because it is manipulating. you are basically telling that s/he is wrong, but, it doesnt appear as if you are doing that.
Jesus spoke in parables - through a veil - as to not force his own wisdom onto people.
Quote:73.13 Questioner: What was the orientation with respect to this type of communication for the one known as Jesus of Nazareth?
Ra: I am Ra. You may have read some of this entity’s workings. It offered itself as teacher to those mind/body/spirit complexes which gathered to hear and even then spoke as through a veil so as to leave room for those not wishing to hear.
I suppose Jesus was wrong also? :¬)
When one, acting from compassion, talks to another with regards to offering an alternative notion, they will naturally offer it in a way as to not offend them. That is the nature of compassion/kindness. It's not something one thinks about (fakes), it's inherent in their nature.
Fakery is an issue only for those not acting genuinely out of compassion. It's as simple as that.
3DM - I too agree that everyone needs to be themselves. Read my signature. One assumes that when on the path of STO, being one's true self is that of unconditional love; patience, acceptance, compassion, kindness, consideration, courage etc.
