Maybe she's too invested in what she's saying.  An easy thing to do.  I do it, too, and don't like it in myself.  Makes me argumentative and snide, which is no way to be.  But it's easy to forget that we are not the truth; truth is outside of us, non-subjective, a separate existence.  When we get too invested in what we report, we take criticism personally, as though our truths ARE us.  Maybe that's what's going on.  It would be good for all of us to try to treat the truth the way (I imagine) the Apostles did.  

OK, everyone.  Time to pile on and tell me how foolish I am for thinking the truth is objective.  Let's hear it.
