"My utterances are merely personal opinions. ...When I oppose a belief, statement, or action it is NOT to suggest that any personal opinion makes the holder unworthy (immoral)--but rather that they are irrational or unwise."

Well then: every one your moral statements and condemnations have no more moral force than: "I prefer vanilla over chocolate." But that's not how you present them; is it? In fact Moral outrage is your stack and trade. I have never seen anyone express moral outrage at someone else who picked Chocolate over vanilla. So I would say: "the lady doth protest too much!"

Again all I can say is what I see you doing and that is: saying one thing, but acting in a way that contradicts your words.

"When I condemn or praise it is MY standards I am evincing and I Intend those standards and values to be rationally defensible and worth persuading others toward..."

Again: People don't jump up and down and call other people names because they like a different flavor of ice cream. There's obviously more going on here than expressing personal opinion.
