and make sure you're not digging yourself a nasty pit.

To the rest of you - We believe that whatever you do, bad or good, comes
back to you three times over.  We also believe that we are to 'harm none' at
all times. So we tell our seekers, and remind ourselves to do, say, and
think good as much as humanly possible.  But Everyone on Earth gets mad
enough to utter a comment such as the one below once in awhile.

You have quite a vocabulary, there my lady!  That one would have curled
Shakespeare's toes!

In one sentence, they're either ignorant of the Hospitaller's role with
newcomers, or they're hopeless boors.  Take your pick!  Maybe it's time for
your group's Hospitaller to put a message in your newsletter, reintroducing
themselves and defining their role in the group?

But until the 'host' learns what the true path is, at least he's bringing in
people, some of whom will stay and play with us.  That's not all bad.
