But there are a lot of easily led sheep on this site too. You are used to a lifetime of following and being told what to think.

Ha! Funniest thing i've read yet today. I am, and have always been a "contrarian." A "follower" is about the last thing anyone would accuse me of being. More like they would say i'm a "trouble maker" and a "rebel." I actually get called a "rebel" several times a month.

I do sometimes like to stir things up just for the sake of stirring things up. I believe people call it "trolling." I really should curtail that more, but I can't always help myself.

Yes, I guess i'm a little immature at times too, but I like to think we can all have lively discussions without the need to call people names or impugning their motives or character.

At least I wish we could. Liberals are usually the screechy little name callers. I would like to believe our side is better than that.

You like to think so, I'm sure, but on this you are following the herd.

All well and good, but you have had the unfortunate luck to have run up against the master.

If you are as smart as you think you are, you will take notes.

Very often, and especially in this case, the motive is the foundation of the argument, and must be impugned.

On the subject of the rona, there are 'motives' for your belief and opinion and motives are key. That's why I, at least, attack it. If it can be proven to you that your motives are wrong, then maybe you can get your mind right and earn your Fearbro card.

You purport to be seeking an honest man (tagline). You have come to the right place. Now learn to recognize one.
