Open-mindedness is self righeous?

Could it be we've given in to self-righteousness in being so open-minded?

Keith:  I think I know what you mean, but isn't it usually the other way 
around.
Those that want an investigation, and inquisition, punishment are the self- 
righeous ones.  May be I am a little naive, pretentious, and self satisfied in 
that I think I can forgive and forget, but I think self-rightousness is what 
is keeping us, I mean the splintered, growing ever smaller, factions of the 
theosphy movement apart.

I think it goes back to the idea that we have a rebel psychology, even if 
hidden under the ample and prudish skirts of the TSA.  In other words, we want 
to go against the general culture and old time religions because we feel 
justified, a little bettter than the bumkin Christians ...

I lifted my skirts a litttle.... it's your turn Kym .... no rumpled sheets 
intended!
