My words are probably not communicating my feelings properly, because I have been light-hearted since the beginning of this thread. Trekr's words did not make me angry. It doesn't matter whether people accept all of what Steve is saying or doubt some parts. I can understand both sides.

It however appeared that trekr seemed rather angry at me (you even had to delete some words, Adrienne). Look at treker's use of verbs. She uses imperatives: "accept it", "don't read it" then unsollicited advice: "you should learn to trust."

I completly believe in the idea that if you want to change someone, it's probably a part of yourself that you want to change. That is why I invited her to re-read the article. By suggesting this, I am being called defensive. I don't want to get into conflict mode, hence my response "i love you".
