andy asks a good question we all know while pontificating usain bolts celebrating
I think it's that "You don't do that" line that gets under my skin. Because when Rogge says "you don't do that" of course what he means is "I don't do that." Obviously, Usain Bolt does do that, and Rogge just thinks it is somehow not reflective of the Olympic attitude or something.
And because "he's still a young man" that means obviously he just doesn't know what's appropriate. The corollary being, if he were older he would therefore know what was appropriate and then act ... well, ... appropriately. But it doesn't cross Rogge's mind that Bolt might, in fact, know exactly what Rogge thinks would be appropriate and has another idea altogether about what "appropriate" really is.
AS USUAL, I see something here that the church might learn. (You knew I'd get to it eventually, didn't you?)
Here's the question: How often do church people say "You don't do that in church" when what they really mean is "I don't do that in church"?
it reminds me too. that when the secretary of the church says that "everyone" is talking, that translates me and the person who hangs out in the office with me. usually.. &:~D
