Ease,

Enjoy all your posts. Have an immense respect and admiration for you but I do somewhat disagree with your statement below:

'Questioning people who really are beyond question.'

There are well respected people all over the world who fall victim to the temptations of riches everyday and do things that they ordinarily wouldn't do. That's reality. People rob, steal and cheat even their closest friends and family because of money.

No one is beyond questioning. Yes, people build great reputations and are due the utmost respect for that but everyone is human and fallible. Even people with long running, proven track records of building solid reputations which are centered on honesty and credibility, can still fall. The lure of wealth, power and prestige can corrupt even the best of men. The love of money is the root of all evil.

This is not to point fingers at anyone but is simply a message to remind us.

I'm the most trusting person in the world. That's my nature. I trust everyone, well, I trust everyone from the outset. And I consider myself to be as trustworthily as they come. But I would also venture to say that there are some folks reading this message board and will say to themselves.."I just don't trust PxP". And you know, that's Ok, because it's their right to call me to task. I can't make people trust me. I can only do my best and hope that my honesty and character is portrayed in such a way that I'll be accepted by my piers for the person I am.

Regards,
PxP
