More on Gossip

I wonder why they call all those magazines in the checkout aisle gossip magazines?

On Gossip

I recently realized that Gossip is not lying. Gossip is when you take refuge by appealing, "What, it's true." Gossip is destructive often times because it is true, but of course we must do unto others, and that does not mean that because you like to hear gossip that you will do unto others and share the gossip. That means that we ought to be willing to shut up our mouths to defend our brothers, because, someone seeking the destruction of the people in their own camp (which is what gossip is) is not seeking the good of their people.
