Michael, I find it illogical that you would seriously argue a position which is absolutely contrary to your own life situation. People who are truly principled achieve some sort of ethical overall lifestyle where they at least attempt to LIVE their espoused political principles. Your principles are utterly contrary to your life. Now if you were observing that about someone, you might even call them hypocritical. I am just asking you to justify the contradiction.

I am in no way helpless to defend my position on an intellectual basis, although perhaps you are. I have asked you to rationally and logically defend the contradiction which you present, but you cannot.

There is room for all sorts of opinions here. However, it seems that your arguing style has not evolved much in the year since you have been gone. You have managed to alienate quite a few people here already, and it is not because they all disagree with you, but because you become extremely illogical when you cannot defend your position on its merits, and then accuse others of the tactics you are using. Someone who was not even around last year suggested that you use faulty logic. A brand new observation on your arguing style! So please don't automatically assume that I do not value differing points of view, or that I am driving down any road in particular. It just seems somehow that the way you post is quite polarizing.

I actually like it when you are here, because Feelings zooms almost to the top of the Hot List. I like controversy, and the more posts the better. I would like there to be a hundred thousand posts soon, in fact. So please stay!
