Even when circumstances or theology vindicate [one's] side of the conflict, a man can still be a quarrelsome man. This may demonstrate itself in a lack of gentleness, a propensity to taking rigid positions when none are required, an inability to lose graciously, or simply an over-love of debate. Whatever the form it takes, quarrelsomeness is a serious impediment to effective service.

[Editor's note: thanks to the many of you who forward jokes my way (-:]

Sid and Barney head out for a quick round of golf. Since they are short on
time, they decide to play only 9 holes. Sid offers Barney, "let's say we make
the time worth the while, at least for one of us, and spot $5 on the lowest
score for the day." Barney agrees and they enjoy a great game. After the 8th
hole, Barney is ahead by 1 stroke, but cuts his ball into the rough on the
9th.

"Help me find my ball, you look over there," he says to Sid. After 5 minutes,
neither has had any luck, and since a lost ball carries a four-point penalty,
Barney pulls a ball from his pocket and tosses it to the ground. "I've found
my ball!" he announces triumphantly.

Sid looks at him forlornly, "After all the years we've been friends, you'd
cheat me on golf for a measly five bucks?!?"

"What do you mean cheat? I found my ball sitting right here!"

"And a liar, too!!!" Sid says with amazement. "I'll have you know I've been
standing on your ball for the last five minutes!"
