It's just an observation, but I see often those who are in charge of keeping the peace and holding the rules are often the ones repeating what eachother say to the people. The moderators here are my inspiration for this line of thought. They all share the role and responsiblity of keeping the rules as they are in cf.net. And in this endeverr I see them repeat the same logic over and over again. Even though it is multiple moderators saying the same thing in different threads.
Thought not as obvious as the example of moderators saying "get along or the thread is closed,". I see the same tendiancy in other groups of people. Wives, husbands, parents, children, teachers, students, frequent travelers, police, and those who always get into trouble. In any group it seems there's something that is picked up by the people because of the role they have filled. Sometimes it's just something you have to trust the other person with because it's a common attribute among that group of people so there must be a reason for it. Not a parent but see parents commonly do ______. Not a cop but see them commonly do _______. Not always in trouble but see from those that do get into trouble often to hold a certian attitude and distance away from others. For each common behavior or common logic in a group that is filling a role in the world, there's probably a reason behind the common behavior or common logic.
....originally I was going to ask what are the roles you've filled in your life. But here's another thought. Being a Christian is a role isn't it? I wonder what things we do that is different from other people. Or if there is any differences between us and the outside world. I see complaints about Christians from those who have an issue with Christianity, that are common attributes among people in general. But I hope there are common attributes noticed among the nonbelievers about us that are positive as well. Let them know you by your love kind of thing I guess.
Just some thoughts. No real point. Sorry.
