***When have I ever attacked you?***

Nice way to deflect my criticism of you wasting our time by your ridiculous questions. It’s obvious that you are not asking questions to learn. You are asking them to “prove your superiority” when the questions are not answered to your satisfaction. This is the classic definition of a troll.

you people do not even have a common lexicon that you all can agree on. i inadvertently uncovered that— no intent to demonstrate any superiority except for the superiority of rational thought and dialogue itself. under those circumstances it is difficult to take anything that comes from you people seriously. without a common lexicon, you people are all to a large degree wasting your time. you people are voicing your opinions, sure, however...as dirty harry says, everyone has an opinion. without calm, rational discussion, and i might add a discussion that welcomes and cherishes questions of all levels from all directions, you people are participating in circle group self abuse. you people deserve every bit of praise that participants in circle group self abuse deserves— no more, no less. you have insulated yourselves from reality with tomes of quasi-nonsense dogma that prevent self examination and promote self absorbtion. and repel almost any rational person not already in your cult from taking you seriously. if that is your intent, then good luck with that.

And if you believe i am a troll, what does that make you, since you joined FR 6 years after i did.

“When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.” “The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.” “The question is,” said Humpty Dumpty, “which is to be master—that’s all.”

Have a nice day! :)
