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).

I may have posted a similar title before but your answers were not pleasant or we wandered off to some other topic. Otherwise I would remember what you all have said. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
