Hi Ehbeth,
When I divulge the nature of the thread, it will become clear that all apply.
Thank you for asking though, any opinion to offer?

Hi Sozobe,
This is not a game. I am not tending any reasoning. I have given clues so as to aid not hamper.

Why have people lost the ability to fathom for themselves? All answers must be on a plate nowadays with full details supplied therewith.

I assure you this is not going to end stupidly.

You have the crux, now deliver the resulting answer to this thread.
I would PM you with the "religious tag" reason. But it would likely supply you with the ingredients you lack in your resolve - so I will not reveal, as of yet.

Hi Chai,

This isn't a riddle. I'm curious as to how long it will take for people to deduce the root of this post's subject. It's not anymore philosophical than knowing the destructive force of "pride".

Don't cave in on this. Everyone of you will think "Oh yeah, it is too" when done.
I didn't think it would be a long thread, anyhow.

Hi Bfn,
It is, indeed to do with 'Trust'. But that is not the answer. If you read the opening post - more than one question is proposed.

Hi Guys,
Allow me to lead you in the right direction... Read the book of proverbs (remove the God attribute, if you so choose) and the answer should slap you in the face.

Hi dlowan and setanta,
I haven't a clue as to how you assume ego is an issue here. It is just a question, made by posting a thread. Are you under the impression I am playing some sort of weird mindgame here, because I'm not.

Hi Mismi,

The point of this thread has been disclosed, it wasn't that brilliant nor was it ever implied to be.
What's all the fuss over a silly question, anyway?

Mark,
You've been doing a lot of winking in this thread, teasingly flirting with everyone by moving the carrot further away each time they make a grab for it. With a wink and the dangling of repeated promises to reveal all at a later time, you've built expectations so high that not even the Oracle of Delphi could reveal predictions of the hidden secrets behind a wink and not disappoint the audience.
Hi Bfn.
I completely disagree. I will explain...
!st quoted quote - The lady asked why I had tagged it thusly (philosophy, religion, psychology). To place it firmly in the correct section, hopefully philosophy. So I could discuss it with other phili refugees. The tags changed and in strolled all the a2k'rs.
As for divulging the nature of the thread? I didn't want to tell Ehbeth why it was related to the tags, or the discussion would have been over on the first post. And each of my original tags DO apply.
On 2nd quoted quote - Why would this be seen as teasing?
On 3rd quoted quote - I have a friendship with A Lyn, and a raport that exceeds what I have with any of you. Don't take on board my direct conversations, they are not aimed at anyone but those I direct them at.
On 4th quoted quote - Again Just directed at chai.
On 5th quoted quote - It is to do with trust (Why would this provoke)?
On 6th quoted quote - I am accustomed to the bible being second nature to those at phili, shall consider this in future.
On 7th quoted quote - I haven't been playing games. It's just a question.
On 8th quoted quote - Speaks for itself.
The audience were only here because someone altered the tags. And people raise their own expectations, what is so lacking in their minds that a question about "winking" no less can get them so over-excited.
Nevertheless - You remain polite and mature in your approach, I appreciate that Bfn.
Have a lovely day.
Mark...
