I don't recall Jewels owning up to those characterizations of you. Certainly I am aware of his potty-mouth responses but that is another matter, isn't it?

"I recognized that your pouncing on him would ruin that because Jewel would not be as forthcoming if he felt attacked"

You would naturally see things from your own perspective. No criticism there. By the time you said some innoculous remarks against Chris and I, Jewels had already shot his load. Both Chris and I recognized that it was coming from the Muslim tradition that not only is adultery illegal--but that ALL instances which may LEAD to sex (such as mixing of the sexes, partial nudity, high heels, make-up, exposed skin, etc.) is both illegal and immoral under Islam. Not only is sex an impurity outside of marriage..but any set or setting which MIGHT lead to sex (exposing your elbow) is an impurity. I am sure you are aware that Jewels did not broach the subject for the reason that he is an intellectual pursuing issues of conscience that have nothing to do with religion (MOHO has no faith...LOL!). But he surely had a reason, didn't he??!!

It was Neo who spoke of you--blah blah blah. He claims he got the ideas from "acquaintances", but the motive apparently came from Jewels (mind-reading, perhaps). However, I am waiting eagerly to hear Jewels admit that he considers you to be "insincere, condescending, and manipulative" and that Neo was representing his thoughts by luck or by direction.
