    I have to agree with you on this statement... No one can be perfect so 100% is not possible but 99% is equal to 100% for a human.

    I can say 100% of the time because I have NEVER had handcuffs on, NEVER sold drugs, NEVER beat my wife.... So if you only did those things once or twice, well I AM BETTER THAN YOU... All the time, saying a person can "make a mistake" is lumping a trucking accident in the same category as a guy who "accidentally" sold drugs or beat his wife...

    You are right, we should forgive people for making mistakes, nobody is perfect 100% of the time. I am not perfect 100% of the time but I am honorable 100% of the time... There's a difference.

    I guess honor or being honorable is subject to interpretation. I treat my family and friends the way I want to be treated, I treat strangers the way they treat me. I have the same respect for others as I want them to have for me, thats my interpretation of honor.

    So when you were passing judgement on a man and claiming to be better than him, is that how you want to be treated. You pretty much proved my point about people claiming to be 100%.

    I am far from perfect. I try to live honorable but I'm human. I treat people fairly but I can admit, not always. If people treat me wrong, I'm sorry, I'm not perfect, I'm not going to treat them fairly back. I am not stupid. I'm not naive, I'm not going to act honorably 100% of the time because I know people aren't going to treat me fairly, and if I act honorably 100% of the time, I will get walked all over.

    I live in the real world. So people claiming to be 100% perfect to me, are claiming BS as per my original post.

    In that context, do you still claim to be 100% honorable?

    Can you explain how the OP treated you wrongly that you had to point out how you should be treated better than him? By your definition, you treat strangers the same way they treat you, did the OP judge you and claim he was better than you? Because that is how you are treating him.
