and your obsession with doctrine is greater than most religious people I know.

You have judged me and determined who and what I am based completely on your own prisms, which distort the world around you. The assumptions you make about me are completely erroneous.

I am sorry that you are stuck in this vortex. I really am. I wish for you that you could relax those filters and take people for who they are instead of the "doctrines" that you attach them to.
