"Had I said anything about it, it would have been you were changing your scenario in the face of criticism. I chose not to weigh in on that.

Great...a reasoned response. So, lets look at it. The allegation was put forward that mojo finds women undeserving of services and some indications that he finds them to be lesser beings than him self...

That was put forward as an explanation of the hypo. That was an unwarranted presumption and one that I felt false regarding the issue of conscience that mojo was standing on. It was put forward to declare him a hypocrite who hatefully descriminates on the basis of negative attributions he associates with this type of person.

This is what, if anything, was an attempt to change the scenario. As you just said "a challenge." I had an obligation to not only dismiss these allegations as unfounded but qualify that by clarifying mojo's view as one that was not based on these assumptions held by his detractors. I would find it incredible that you would have me leave the allegations as having any validity in the argument. Except that you seem to prefer that easy way to dismiss the scenario...it has such popular appeal. When I presented a reasonable explanation as to how mojo dealt with these things in a way that was consistent with his belief statement ... you were not happy. You not only don't want to think of him as honorable... You don't want to know things about him that portray him as reasonable and decent. That's just confusing karen.

You explain it.
