I don't see how anyone can set the "terms" about how you express yourself. People can call you an ass for expressing yourself, but they certainly can't stop you from doing it (although Cosmic wasn't even calling you an ass- he just wanted to have a rational debate- HAHAHAHAHA- obviously he doesn't KNOW you). Well, SI Bob stopped you from setting the terms to express yourself, if I recall- but no one else can. If you've got a bone to pick about expressing yourself it ought to be with SI Bob- for he is the Power and the Glory (here), Amen. I hope you don't think you have any right to be RESPECTED by people who you do not respect, or to have your beliefs respected by people whose beliefs you do not respect. That would be enormously hypocritical of you. Not that I want to foreclose that option to you. Far be it from ME to set the terms of your hypocrisy.

I'm just using logical argument. Please, feel free to offer your belief anyway you like. I'd never stop you. What you wrote wasn't stated as "I think ...", it was stated as an objective fact. I like to question things presented as objective facts and make sure they really have substance. I get paid to do that. An occupational hazard in your mind, maybe. But, if people like me didn't exist, you'd still be being bled and fed all sorts of noxious substances, basically tortured, to free you of demons when you were sick. Someone had to ask, "Let's assume it isn't demons. What then." You're a luck man really.
