Actually, this point came up in our local discussions. We felt that since we are the arbiters of what constitutes "harm" then we're covered.
"Listen, bub! You've got about four seconds to rephrase that remark. Ah cain't count very high!" -- You see, we have the enlightened perspective that allowing such churlish behavior to go unchallenged would be inherently harmful to the churl, and that it is incumbent on us to educate him in that regard, for his own safety.
... in pure loving friendship, of course.
But what about the turn the other cheek -- I always assumed that meant that someone who attacked me verbally should summarily be mooned. Any thoughts??
I knew that all it would take would be for us to sit down and talk reasonably amongst ourselves. I feel that the schism between the branches may be close to being healed.
