Friends,
It is written here[...this place is honorable...].
When we think about what {honorable} could mean, some think of integrity. Some think of showing honesty. Some think of adhering to a code in a firm way, without discrimination, capreciousness or biasing the code in an arbitrary manner. Some think of honorable to be thought of as not deserving of criticism.
We talk about the integrity of a structure. Will it fall down from the way it is constructed? We talk about the integrity of a person as showing honesty.Will the person fall down if he/she is dishonest? The falling down is loosing credibility, as being seen as a charlatan, one that does not uphold their word, one that is a hypocrite.
Now the honorability of a community can be seen by the fruits of the members. For does not a good community,like a tree, that is honorable, bring forth good fruit? Are their lives changed to the better? Is life a priority? Or do the members talk about wanting death? Do the members grow toward the light of life or the darkness of death? Do members go from the state of a living death to the state of life and life more abundantly?
When you make your mind to think as to if a community is honorable, could you think upon those things? Now there is the potential for one to die suddenly from taking psychotropic drugs. And if you read here all of the stories that promote mind-altering drugs and you take them and feel good, what good would it do to feel good and loose your own life? Is that {honorable]?
