> Ryan, calm down. It's true I have not answered your posts. You pissed me off by using me to expound and to renew arguments with Dave. Don't deny it, you know it's true. Be that as it may, I am no angel and have been known to pull the nasty trick or two myself. Probably have done so in this forum.
I'm not mad at you. I just didn't want my views misrepresented. I'm not trying to "argue" with Dave. Just clarifying what I believe, and why I believe it. I just want others to see that there is another side to enneagram development besides believing that we can all transcend type. Disbelieving this does not necessarily mean that one does not believe the enneagram can be used for personal development.
By the way, please don't be oversensitive in regards to my posts. 5s never mean hard feelings to people (unless they are extremely unhealthy) :)
> First, that you have passion and the courage of your convictions, is marvelous. Second, I think you make several good points, however I have not finished thinking and studying. Therefore will not talk about my ideas until I have more than the embryonic synthesis of this thing.
Good for you. Discover things for yourself, don't listen to me. :) Seriously, I like to provide tidbits to think about. Other people have ideas on here I like, and some ideas I think are kooky (J5) Take what you need from my posts for your own personal beliefs, debate with me if you like. But don't take anything I say too seriously.
