I must say that this is one of the most grievous of errors one may rudely and arrogantly do to one another in society. This is not about a man who has no visual sight. There is that as well.
The blind are any person who does not know that he has a missing conjecture in life. To think that you can not organize your life in the manner that another person can do is to render you blind and you can not see that there is a stumbling block before you when another person says something that puts you in a precarious position of not being able to make any amends, not being able to present evidence of the contrary and not being able to answer their arrogant remarks with a more humble reply that would suffice to sullen their misery or their narcissistic envy.
I had a friend who upon myself making a reproving remark to his family member tell me that I was "not well". A wise man accepts rebuke. Perhaps this family was not such a wisdom blessed happy group of persons. That said, my comments were in regard to a statement that the speaker made a comment that implied that "G-d was not right and not good". That to me is heresy and I said that it was and that the remark was incorrect. I was met with a hostile and ambitious action to remove my soul from the life of their day and to keep me from making any amends in the future.
I admit it was harsh. I am a doctor. Some of the pills we give to people are not the simplest pill to swallow. But medicine is medicine and I will not refrain from speaking a rebuke if it is indeed required to stifle heresy or ill manners.
So that said, I am now contending that I may have to share this conversation with this person if I may do so; that I felt he put a stumbling block before me when he told me after that that I was "unwell". This is because my personal wellness is not what makes me speak my piece. It is my own need for edification. And if you do not agree with me, speak your own piece. But do not let a treacherous mood beset your days.
