A lost sheep

[welderguy]

So, as long as you are truly prideful, that is ok?

By whose standard? And who judges?

By whose standard? And who judges?

You answering a question with a question.

 

[welderguy]

You answering a question with a question.

Why?

 

[660griz]

Why?

Really?

 

[ambush80]

Neither.
Both are just being who they truly are. No?

Are you refuting the Lewis quote, too?

 

[atlashunter]

By whose standard? And who judges?

Who is there to judge?

 

[redwards]

Ridiculous. Pride can be felt in a personal achievement, though it be sub standard compared to anyone else.

What's more prideful, to believe one has a mainline to God's ear or to claim agnosticism about things one doesn't have any real knowledge of?

"Well, the walls of pride are high and wide
Can't see over to the other side
It's such a sad thing to see beauty decay
It's sadder still to feel your heart turn away"

That's a song about a failed marriage.
Im not making the connection.
But if we want to cherry pick words in it, how about -

Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
I found my own, I found my one in you
But your love just hasn't proved true
I'm 20 miles out of town, Cold Irons bound

But great tune
