You pretended to ask for a to or about, and then declaimed that you didn't mean it. To my mind that is false, and a type of lying. You will no doubt say it was just a game, you didn't mean it, you didn't really ask for that- and so on. A persona who would "play" that way, and talk about "playing" people, as you did (your own words)- is not a "persona" to be evaluated as if they were a normal conversant, who is trying to be basically truthful. If we stack up your ad hominems against "ours" the sheer crushing mass of yours is going to convince anyone that the only person really playing in the ad hominem ballpark, is you. If you could raise yourself to the level we play at I'm sure Cosmic would appreciate it. Your name calling is unending- we simply doubt your sincerity, which, let's face is, IS relevant to the issue, since taking someone seriously, when they are not serious, is just a waste of time. You've admitted to pretending to take something seriously which you did not- that makes your credibility suspect, and although discussing it is "about you", it's actually not even really an insult- since we both believe that most people are less than absolutely sincere- you were merely intentionally less than sincere.

Dude, that was ionesco's post. Why are you here? I've asked you repeatedly to answer very specific questions in an attempt to clarify your positions and discuss specific issues which you have yet to answer directly. And now you want to conduct a witch hunt with this "Is cosmicforce a racist" survey? That is too transparent. You are apparently used to blustering and having your beliefs go unchallenged. You may have been an authority figure and seem to want continued, but unearned deference. When that doesn't happen, you act indignant or hurt and go for a personal attack or falsely accuse others of it. You are obviously not capable of or interested in real debate. You should find more acolytes because you are obviously not getting the deference you think you deserve.
