Words are fun - those are good examples
BTW humility, the noun form of humble, is different from humiliation. Hum- is also the root of humble. Literally, like humus, "on the ground." Jesus was reportedly a "down-to-earth", "grounded", humble guy. And he was Jesus Christ, for His sake! Qeq :) It really says a lot about a person to be that humble while being literally superhuman.
Humble doesn't mean being a lowlife or slave, or having no pride in your cleanliness or your children; just not doing stuff like being boastful and self-centered, taking all the credit for what was really a team accomplishment, etc.

Yes I'm quite aware that the Bible preaches self sacrifice and the valor of smallness. I espouse neither philosophy.
You:
Now tell us again how you don't espouse self sacrifice.
Qeq
I totally get your point! But I see them not as a sacrifice but as a gain. But I think we're (I'm) splitting philosophical hairs now.
