Wow, you really said that well. I agree completely. There is something in the Bible (or perhaps just in the religious events I attended) that says 'hate the sin, love the sinner.'
I am, of course, not saying that gal is a sinner, it is the IDEA of behavior versus the person I am trying to support. It is very possible that gal is just one of us, who has her own pain, etc., and it is not HER that has upset some of us, but her behavior.
You said it well, very well, Susan. No doubt you are a most excellent advocate when it is called for.
