Hi gal! glad to see you posting & not just reading.

You said "There is such a sin as self righteousness and most outspokeness is tainted with it.
As far as going around "telling the truth to everyone" God tells us to first take the mote out of our eyes and Roy is the best example I can think of who has reached that state of awareness. There is a time to speak and a time to be quiet when dealing with neighbors and those who have no understanding. And to be right with God, we had better know the difference."

You can't possibly claim to know that most posts are tainted with self-righteousness. It remains true that if Roy were to have NEVER spoken on the radio, and written much of what he says on his own forum, you & everyone of us would think he sounded sinfully self-righteous in those posts! The written word is the problem, and as for knowing when to speak up to people and when not, of course most of us don't go around correcting the world, the way we do on forum. The forums are FOR this. If a person doesn't come there and share, ASKING for everyone's opinions, WHAT are they/we posting for? just to read ourselves in print? of course not...and every publicly made post carries an implied consent to replies. If those replies are void of correction, then we have a coffee clatch and nothing more.
