Angelina RE: point being missed all together

While completly understanding her point of view, I must, unfortunately,
address Angelina's post, and I will do so in a manner, as to not attack
her character, pride intellegence or honour.
I do not think my post was questioning the benefits of teaming, but
merely the fact that if one walks in Divine Grace, they are protected by
the Divinities, under the assumption that they -cannot- engage into
combat, nor -be- engaged into combat.
My stance is that a person healing someone in their party, that is
engaged in combat, whether they are graced or ungraced is an aggressive
act upon you and your party. The attack may not be physical, but the
means to your end is still the same, DEATH. Thusly, so, I say that said
person healing while graced has -chosen- to throw themselves into the
melee between both parties and give aid to theirs, and rightly so, they
should no longer walk under the protection of Grace. If one is engaged
in battle, be it a physical attack, or be it one of aid in the form of
sustanance, giving someone and herb, curing their afflictions, you are
-engaging- yourself into combat.
The fact the the PK rules have an unwritten RULE, stating that there is
only so much time allowed to attack someone from the time of the
incident, is allowing people who walk in grace to attack, remain in
grace for this period of time, and never have to worry about the
consequences of their actions.
I have been told, you can wait for them to ungrace, but it has been -my-
observation that most people who walk in grace do so on a permanent
basis, which, in the case of the PK rules, does not allow one to seek
revenge after said period of time from which the incident Occured. I
speak the truth of this rule as I had a divinity consul me upon my -own-
actions against another.
And so my stance remains the same, If someone, who walks under Divine
Protection gives aid to another that is already engaged into combat,
whether that aid be in the way of healing, lending them their sword,
curing afflictions, or doing physical dammage to you, they have done so
willingly, and made a conscious to engage themselves into combat, and
have perfomed an aggressive act, just as if they attacked you
themselves. Again, I say, their goals, and the one they are lending
support to, are one and the same, to see you dead. To walk under the
protection from the divinities, while performing an aggressive act,
currently is not allowed for, but the rules for which, have been clearly
neglected to see these points.
With guilt by association, one could rob someones store, and have
someone brazier/portal me out, Now even though, said
portaling/braziering party did not take party to the crime of theft,
they did provide aid, and their services, and should be held just as
accountable for their actions as the person that did, willingly commit
theft agaisnt another. The way the graced/healing rules are now, said
person braziering suffers no consequences for their actions,
disregarding the fact that they share in the gain of loot.
This is illogical, unreasonable and an abomination of law, especially to
those who 'supposedly' hold law and order in high regards. Does this
mean that they are now 'above' their own laws?
The fact that they are inadvertently being endorsed by the Gods, while
they walk in their Divine Grace, to perform crimes such as these is
unjust, unreasonable, and an absurdity to their own 'code of ethics'.
I do not mind having counter-argument to my Topic, but lets stick to the
facts of the subject. I welcome anyone to discredit me upon the SUBJECT
at hand, through use of facts and demonstration or anyother means they
deem necassary. Misconstruing the facts and Misdirection of the Subject
are moot and irrelevent.

Again, I humbly ask that all consider these words,
In War, there is Truth,
In Truth there is Honour,
In Honour there is Valour,
In Valour, there is Strength.
