Okay, Captain Krunch. You say that the way in which I characterized your comment was not close to what you said. And in a way, you are right. Because what you had said was this:

What an utterly ignorant and bigoted position. Can't "tolerate" the fact that some may disagree on the issue?
Thought you granola heads were big on "tolerance"? JLA


To try to make sense of your remark, I interpreted that statement as though it were a statement of disagreement instead of a simple (very simple) insult. Here is what I said:

Let it be noted that you claimed that what I said was
inaccurate, and I merely asked you to indicate what was the
inaccuracy. (I am making what you said more sensible than it
was, out of politeness.)


If you disagree with that description of your position, then I take it that you are admitting that my characterization of some of the positions that have been expressed here is accurate?

This is the statement with which I take it you now concur:

On the one hand, they like the idea of getting the
government to force the woman to give birth against her will, because they are convinced their own religious views are right, and that obedience to them should be mandatory for all citizens...


You might substitute for the word "religious" above "religious/mystical/metaphysical."

You know something? I just hate it when mystical dogma is shoved down the throats and up the vaginas of American women by big government. It makes me so cross I just have to stamp my foot and say darn.
