"I've kind of had it with your hyperbolic exaggerations."
Well, let's examine some pertinent facts, point by point
then, shall we? Like who is hypocritical on a personal
level for one.....

From: abstract - Friday, Dec 19, 2003 - "I would prefer an exchange of ideas over the assassination of characters."
<font size=3>
Also, all from abstract during our, "exchange of ideas".
"I.... see rants instead of reasons and diatribe instead of dialogue. I've read most of your links and see posturing men beating their chests. A tag-team wrestling matching pitting the buffoonery of the Kennedys and the Daschles vs. the idiocy of the Lotts and the Thurmonds would be just as convincing. And irrelevant to "the truth." I have learned nothing here today."
"I like being educated. But being brow-beaten.... persuades me of nothing."
"....are you waiting for the government to tell you what the rest of us already know?"
"You post between 10 and 20 posts a day. In over 10,000 posts, never once have I seen you say you were wrong, or that some other poster changed your mind, or taught you something...."
"At the risk of being too honest, too often in the past you've sounded (to me) like Jules, in Pulp Fiction, who before unloading his weapon said:
There's a passage I got memorized,
seems appropriate for this
situation: Ezekiel 25:17. "The path
of the righteous man is beset on
all sides by the inequities of the
selfish and the tyranny of evil
men. Blessed is he who, in the
name of charity and good will,
shepherds the weak through the
valley of darkness, for he is truly
his brother's keeper and the finder
of lost children. And I will
strike down upon thee with great
vengeance and furious anger those
who attempt to poison and destroy
my brothers. And you will know my
name is the Lord when I lay my
vengeance upon you."
I have difficulty with Jules' attitude. It doesn't seem that there is much room for another opinion."
"some of us think the post that you've taken such offence at was actually complimentary <comparing me to Jules, the religious zealot, thug, murderer - above>.... You have returned to blithely slaughtering, striking down upon me with great vengeance and furious anger..... "I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.""
"I am interested in the exchange of ideas & being educated (and educating)..... I think we learn more by having a polite, perhaps intense, discussion of ideas, not an argument."
"Wow. You are amazingly insulting."
"I reiterate my questions and you refuse to answer them and instead tread new depths. Enjoy them. I refuse your bait."
"I've kind of had it with your hyperbolic exaggerations."
