I am sorry I don’t understand your post. I meant that we should be attacking Fluke’s message and not her personally. The problem with personal attacks is that there is nothing of substance there, you give the enemy fodder to attack you, and your message gets lost in the fall out.

Fluke’s sexual proclivities have no bearing on her argument one way or another. Her argument is invalid whether she is a slut or pure as the driven snow. Stick with issue which is a winning one if we can get back on message.

Ma’am, please understand I’m addressing you in a respectful fashion because your posts clearly indicate you want nothing but to be humble and helpful.

Nevertheless, comments like “The problem with personal attacks is
that there is nothing of substance there...” while well meaning, are cliche’ and incorrect. Personal attacks are tremendously effective, and one of the key reasons we keep losing.

We can not afford to play by rules our enemies flaunt with impunity and which do nothing but prevent US from responding effectively.

Ask yourself this question: will God hold us guiltless for rigidly following the same demonstrably ineffective strategy as pro-lifers for the last forty years?
