When someone says "I can't take you seriously"..and "I wish you would find another playground"  I am reminded of some very solid and helpful spiritual formation I received...a person who says these things thinks very highly of him or herself.  They tend to live with a lot of ups and downs because they strangers to the virtue of true humility.   They have conversations with themselves, not with God.  They suffer near constant interior complaint. 

And the whole playing Freud...projection etc...reveals even bigger shortcomings.
