Oracle Very Correct.

For me its to have the vision to forsee years ahead and drive people on that direction. This attribute is one of the most important.

I wonder what the T/Cs would make of that , shall we ask them ??
ps: You are not calling me a yes man are you honey !!!


The term I used was: .... "at least I respect them enough to tell them the truth".

I believe they are mature enough to take the truth Miltiades. Do you not? Do you think you will upset them and make them cry?

I don't know if you are a "yes" man Mil. ....... (I'll put you to the test when you visit :lol: )

How can you say that when your profile declares one of your interests as:
'Torturing Turks To Tell The Truth'?! Where is the respect?

I see you are quick with the insults my dear. At least I was polite.
Now, give us all an honest answer, if you can!

My ability to answer and my desire to do so, to you .... are leagues apart!

If I thought you had the capacity for the understanding my reasoning requires, I may oblige.

But if there's one thing I've learnt in the last few weeks ... it's not to bother with Bubbles.

So don't torture yourself with thinking too much, or your blister will burst.

Now, go find someone else to pester! ..... you've tortured me enough :lol:

1. Philia .... To have Soul and Motivate.
2. Sophia ....To have Temperance to allow Wisdom
3. Andreia .... To possess Courage as in Manhood

What attributes make a good Ruler for today's Modern World?


..... and may the best man win tomorrow :wink:


The term "ruler" suggests supreme authority. The nature of man requires "checks and balances." Therefore, there's no place for rulers in "today's Modern World."
