Solon apologizes to the universe for what North Americans have accomplished when no apology is needed

I am exceedingly proud of what North America has accomplished. Your implication that one ought to apologize for the good which they have implemented, is accompanied by a distimct rattle. I believe you have "free" health care. You ought to use it...

"He wants to reduce the world to the common denominator of a third world cesspool to appease the pangs of his conscience."

In truth, I want to eradicate all cesspools. Your comment is so ignorant, hostile, and incomprehensible that it is clear that too many spikes have been driven into the tree. You don't get maple syrup out of watered down sap...

"He seeks to replace God"

That is true as it reflects the awareness that "God" is representational of a certain "weltanschauung".

"rewrite history"

Why would anyone want to do that? I seek to understand the past and to learn from the mistakes that I and others have made. You, on the other hand--are content to have a good right hand and five working fingers...

"play the Wizard of Oz role"

It seems like a meaningless comment, so it must be a sign of intelligence to your simple mind! You would like us to think so wouldn't you, Joe Average??!! ;-)
