Hi, & Welcome Aboard
This offering maybe right, or wrong, but it is one, the other, both, or neither!
With Metta
Upāsaka Cittasanto
Blog - Some Suttas Translated.
"Others will misconstrue reality due to their personal perspectives, doggedly holding onto and not easily discarding them; We shall not misconstrue reality due to our own personal perspectives, nor doggedly holding onto them, but will discard them easily. This effacement shall be done."

Welcome Wesley! 
To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.

Do all threads and questions have to be moderated before they show up? . .

Only on "Discovering Theravada". And "Open Dhamma Hot Topics"
If your intention is to have a discussion, post in one of the other areas.
[Generally members don't start theads in "Open Dhamma Hot Topics", threads are moved there if they become very contentious.]

Greetings Wesley,
Welcome to this side of the fence!
Metta,
Retro.

If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)
'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra Panyapatipo

to quote the Zen poet Issa:
In the cherry blossom's shade
there's no such thing
as a stranger.
welcome, Wesley

When this is, that is.
From the arising of this comes the arising of that.
When this isn't, that isn't.
From the cessation of this comes the cessation of that.

Hi Wesley and welcome!
...he wondered whether there was any love between human beings that did not rest upon some sort of self-delusion.
