Hopefully that’s a good thing :joy:
My sponsor is an a$$ hat :tophat: :laughing:
I love the heck out him though he shoot’s straight from the hip.. never sugar coats anything. When one truly gets to know him they find out he has a huge heart and very empathetic. :hugs:

I think that’s what a lot of people do, they just package it in ways they understand.

Looks like our minds are already open to the idea They're just not for us. An open mind doesn't automatically mean you'll believe in every last idea.

Sounds like you don't respect that people can have different beliefs than you. You don't see us saying your minds are closed because of your faith.

Not the case at all. I admire and am actually jealous of people who do

I respect that completely. It’s just if you are saying no matter what new information I get or see I will never believe what you believe, that’s not open minded. I don’t care what you believe or don’t so calm down.

I’m not saying that at all Shawn.

I’m not pushing anything man. I just tell folks what works for me. Anyone is free to think, feel, believe anything. I’d rather be happy than right.
