I am not leading anyone. I have posted what I thought was appropriate on many many many threads not only my own.

I am interested in GLP's opinion on this topic. I will summarize your input as ''you reap what you sow''.

Yes, I agree, the Goddess Rhamnousia holds sway in this world, so one must be careful to choose what one reveals and what one does not. Some secrets need to remain so, to protect people, and some need to be revealed to ensure the guilty are punished.

What is the definition of a "secret"?

Re: I rarely ask a question ...
The real question is: should someone disseminate facts that are publicly known if they are unpopular?

very interesting.


In my opinion, unless someone asks you as an adult to stop speaking things that other people could easily learn for themselves, then you are under no obligation to remain silent if you choose to offer your knowledge without compensation.

If someone with an interest against you asks you to stop, then it is entirely on you what consequences you are willing to accept, however, up to that point, I do not believe that it is on the person to know the agenda of others when it is not entirely clear what they do and do not want others to know.

I believe this is especially the case if the person giving away the knowledge has no personal interest in giving it away other than a sharpening of the craft of wisdom and teaching.

What if it is not, just not generally interesting to most people except under exceptional circumstances?

I posited a reply that did not fit the criterion of your ''shareing knowledge paradigm'' ...nothing more. The interest level was irrelevant.

ie the person giving the knowledge away in that instance would definetly not be gaining and thus have no personal interest in giving it away.

Would it be a weak response to say that teaching is its own reward?
