>>The point I was making to you, and will invite comment on here, is: should a thread dedicated to liberal principles comply with basic tenants of liberal principles? Is an autocratic, dictatorial exercise of power without warning, notice, or opportunity to be heard consistent with liberal principles? << Why would you want to participate in a "discussion" (using the term loosely here) that is closed? It's a "private" gathering and you were "un-invited". Don't be offended. Hopefully it's nothing personal.

I don't have you on ignore but I'm not going to continue to quibble with you on this either. Your posts on the LWP are a matter of public record. You have laid your "case" out for all to see and have received feedback. You have received my responses, both privately and publicly. Frankly, your attempt to get your way by attempting to use your definition of liberalism against me appears to be based on desperation. I apologize to you for not having sent you a note warning you that I felt your behavior there violated the spirit of my thread. Knowing what I do about you now however, I don't think that any degree of polite behavior on my part would have stopped you. I am not going to discuss this with you any more, Chris, though I look forward to reading your posts on substantive matters.

Very strange. X opposed your view that religion should be taken out of government and says that is a right wing view! I was under the impression that the liberals wanted to keep religion out of government, since they are always accusing the Christian right of having too much influence. Since she claims to be an agnostic, that is really weird. Her final defense is always to say that other people "won't understand her". Not surprising since she contradicts herself so much. I think they just don't like men over there. Face it, it's just Poet's thread and she bans whoever she feels like banning and won't give logical reasons for doing it.
