Some of the proudest people I know are 2x2s - proud of their humility and simple way of life.
But is it still humility if you're proud of it?

Yes that is a good way to point out the pride of humility !! The humility of humility makes it hard to talk. I think the 2x2 are guility of pride in themselves period !

Again, way to categorize a group. M. Way to categorize the poster... Your response made absolutely no sense...? Care to explain it? The poster made a general statement about a whole group of people (the 2x2 are full of pride in themselves?) and I simply said something about it. How did I categorize the poster? I guess any response is ok...even a nonsensical one? M.

Why are you sitting on the fence, WTBWG? Because I don't know what to do yet! I haven't made up my mind about certain issues at this time. M.

Pride and humility are two opposite charactor traits. They are not linked in my head. They are completely separate and opposite. How can you be a humble person and be proud of it.That doesnt make any sense to me. A humble person has no pride in being humble in fact are possibly unaware that they are humble. Humility is an active descision of your will. It is not an emotion. If you choose to humble yourself for any reason there wouldnt be a place for pride.

How about saying that I am the most loving person alive, the fact that I love to hate people should make me a lover.

I guess it's all in your point of view... or maybe the 2x2's that you know. The 2x2's that I know are content with their simple way of life. However, I don't see the "proud lack of humility" that you refer to. Kevin
