  1. a word Says:

    someone with great following once said: it is not the exterior that defiles you. you are defiled because of what’s within you - unseen.

    the exterior can be dressed. just because you look right in form or under a legal framework, doesn’t necessarily make you righteous. likewise, just because i wear a cross on my neck, doesn’t make me a christian, does it?

    a rationale and fair mind will know to look beyond the exterior.

    you see, the people were judged because of what they believe and stand for WITHIN, not without. otherwise, would a child be judged similarly for wearing something controversial?

    if we are going to judge contempt of authority, which is committed WITHIN a person, then, i think, three quarter of the population could be in contempt of authorities!

    hence, just because people are polite to you from the outside doesn’t mean there is no contempt for you WITHIN.

    judge justly.

    (thought i may dump it here too)

  2. the b Says:

    surely the one who dares wears his thoughts on the outside is less of a hypocrite compared to the one who keeps it within

    unfortunately, it was a court hearing. perhaps it is safer to wear them out in the open, beyond the confinements of 4 sombre walls

    Check it out, it respects not the court and why? Precisely.
