I’m going to “steal” that sometime.

Spirited: Please do! I say that because deep within the psyche of the envious is shame and fear of exposure. Exposure is what’s needed for the same reason that dark things shun light. Exposure brings shame. Shame at the very least, leads to fear of repeat offense for fear of exposure.

Envy is a spiritual pathology that can and will lead to murder, as it did with Cain who envied Able. The cycle begins with transference of guilt from the envious to the object of envy followed by psychological bullying (crucifixion of spirit) and taking of things (destruction of spiritual virtues, theft of good name, temporal goods) then comes physical crucifixion.

Only our Lord the Physician of souls can heal the envy-bitten soul. But until and unless the spiritually sick soul seeks healing we must resort to strategic deterrence methods, i.e., exposure.
