That wasn't preaching at all, IMO. I found that to be honest.
We are all different, as your marriage can attest. If we discern a member to be a certain "way" from our own perspective, then so be it. This discernment belongs inside us, and we can learn from it. We must understand that even the person lying next to us could discern the same member in a completely different way, and that belongs to them in the same way it belongs to us.
I am a firm believer in letting people be who they are. In that respect, I request the freedom to be who I am. ... I would want nothing less than your honest scrutiny of the Ra Material. I have my own interpretations of it that are not the popular kind.
I am pretty black and white in my approach. To me, the "Shin'ar controversy" is simple. Please don't make character judgements public, i.e. service orientation accusations.
