"The only "actions" you have ever witnessed from me or "WORDS"."

Actions speak louder than words is a commonly used figure of speech. It was not meant to be interpreted in such a wooden literal fashion. When I said: "It's only when pressed that you "say" that "there are no OUGHTS" but your actions speak louder than your words." I meant that your unguarded statements were indicative of your true feelings.

"When I criticize superstition that directs people to make dangerous and reckless choices for not only themselves...but in the lives of others, it is more than a flavor of vanilla, isn't it??

"What are you doing meddling in the lives of others?"

"When I condemn the Inquisition or the murder of people like Giordano Bruno, it is more than a hint of chocolate, isn't it??"

Why is your morality superior to theirs?

Actually when ever you morally condemn anyone outside of yourself you are demonstrating that you think they ought not to be doing what they are doing, which contradicts your assertion that all "My utterances are merely personal opinions." Your opinion is that they should or ought not be doing certain things. That and a buck fifty will get you a coffee at Tims.
