They are not mean, or evil--at least not in the way that we like to label evil--they are just scared, K. And they cannot figure out why i am not attacking back any more. Because that is what they seek; that they can understand.
And i am not here to condemn you, if you wish to continue seeking Christ, crucified, ok. I pray that serves you well. But you might note that Christ crucified is represented by a snake on a pole, K, and your people even proclaim this, proudly; because they cannot see, right there in the face, what became of Nehushtan. We have a record in the Book, but that is all just history, of course, it is not important, almost surely probably.

I seek Christ, and Him crucified in my flesh. I don't wish to crucify anyone else.
Col. 3:9-14
9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.
12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
