Didn't we just have a thread about this not too long ago? The whole Christian ideal of humbleness being a virtue and pride being a sin is directly connected to their religion: it's not jus "pride" and "humility" in the English sense of the word.
In other words, in the Christian Mythos, it's not about being humble before other humans, it's about being humble before God (and recognizing one's limits as a mortal being).

Nowhere is it written that being humble towards God is good but being humble towards humans is NOT good. Humility is regarded as a virtue in all things. And I just want an explanation of what exactly that humility is and how it works. Cause I wrote in my post above what it looks like and I don't get it.
