Phyllis and Burt.....you are right. People can hurt with their words.
It can cut right to the bone when you have offered love and acceptance, only to be met with hurtful words, hateful words coming out of nowhere. And sometimes those who cause destruction with their words will run off and hide, not wanting to be held accountable for what they have done. And why is that? Insecurities? Cowardice?
In an ideal world, words of love and concern should always be met with the same, but unfortunately it does not always happen that way. Those who love will always take a risk of getting hurt.
The power of words is enormous.
Cowardice and insecurity always come from jealousy of someone else's light and spiritual attainment they have garnered from positive free-will choices from previous embodiments.
Those closest to you will be used as weapons of your destruction.
However, Love is the law of the universe and all hate and hate creation will be burned away.
Yet, because of free-will, we must ask for God to send his angels to rescue souls and keep the planet going so we can evolve spiritually and learn our lessons.
Anything that is honest and true, sweet and kind will be viciously attacked.
We've been getting screw for centuries because the closer you get to God-Truth, the more you get attacked.
First, the stuff you're getting about God is Pablum.
No meat, no substance.
How did this happen ?
You can Thank The Royal Christian Emperor Constantine who was a very practical man who realized that he could not retain power if his empire was half Christian and Half Pagan <which simply means worshiping everything EXECPT the god of the bible>. A lot of pagans are real cool and you can learn a lot from them...
Anyway, they tried to kill them off and couldn't sooo... if you can't beat them, join them.
Then came the council of Nicaea the Nicaean creed...
Any reference to your ability to reach god on your own through gnosis or christian mysticism was branded as a heretic because it was not politically expedient.
Jesus is now elevate to the status of a Roman God akin to Apollo The Sun God and the rest of you are miserable sinners so you need us, The Roman Catholic Church to get to Jesus to get to God.
"Mom didn't the Romans throw the christians to the lions" ?
"Yes".
Then, why do they call it The Roman Catholic Church ?
35years later by God's Grace the answer is:
Because it is a church of Rome and not of Jesus Christ !!!
Oh, The Roman Cathoic Church was the first place that the Bloomberg 3-screen real-time stock market computer system.
And they spent a lot of that Hard Earned Money on a telescope to look for wormwood !!
Wormwood already happened ... it was the Cherynobly nuclear disaster in 1986 !
Let's not forget the 14-year old whore who slept her way to the top...

She made absolutely sure that any reference to reincarnation was removed from the bible because she did not to pay for her sins and come back as a peasant.
Jesus Christ Our LORD and Saint Francis of Assisi taught reincarnation openly.
There are only two references in the bible left.
So, it's real fun to slog through 450 years of a christianity based upon lies.
Sex, Drugs and Rock 'n Roll baby !!
Sin to win !!
No wonder most sane people want nothing to do with orthodox religion.
The whole civilization is a lie.
