ok, let me rephrase that,

pretty please, if you wouldn't mind, if it's not too much trouble, if you feel so inclined, if it doesn't go against your scruples, or interfere with your Christian sensibilities, would you be good enough, to consider, just for once, making a contribution to this thread...

or get off the soap box?

Perhaps my immediate contribution is to highlight how disgusting it is for a couple of contributors to these threads to relentlessly, neverendingly insult, mock, demean & lie about everyone w whom they disagree. Perhaps people are finally sufficiently sick & tired of that MO to want to see a change.

Of course those for whom insults are their only real stock in trade can never give them up. Yet merely highlighting the frequency & degree to which certain posters resort to personal insults, put-downs, ridicule, etc., can serve a valuable purpose. Adults don’t like being treated like children, and it’s only children who insult as relentlessly as some on eligibility threads do. The time may have come to say, ‘enough’. We shall see.
