eleutheria , "What kind of rejoinder would you like?"
I didn't say I would like a rejoinder; I merely wondered if one would be forthcoming.
"I wish you the best, and I'm sorry you don't see things the way I do. I don't labor under any belief that I can change your mind, or that there's even any reason to try."
Correct, you are!
"You enjoy this thread, and what it stands for, and I do not approve. It is my strong belief that we should argue ideas, and not be personal, . . ."
For the most part, we on this thread do discuss and debate (not argue) ideas and do not become personal with each other.
" . . . if we hope to discuss anything controversial. That means we must be polite, and refrain from attacking our fellow posters, if we want to attack their ideas and still be able to communicate."
My (and others') take is that you came to this thread to "attack" and belittle, and that is obvious, as evidenced by your posts here (and elsewhere); there can be no other interpretation.
"Obviously people on this thread disagree with my beliefs on the above."
Of course, we disagree--and on all counts! See above.
"And for Tim- the reason I put people on ignore is so they cannot PM me, it's a privacy issue for me. I have always had you on ignore, and I always will. I read your posts, when they are on threads where I am posting.
This should be addressed in a post to Tim, not to me.
"Best of luck to you all in your continued passing around of your buckets."
Thank you! And keep up the good work! We'll take all the
fodder we can get! <g> - Holly |
