The point is that your "points" have been debated ad nauseum in FR prior to your arrival; no insult intended, but there was absolutely nothing new or revealing in your vanity.
As you say, I’m a newby on this site. I gave this site a try in the hopes of finding a little intellectual stimulation from people who would exchange ideas with me, debate issues, and offer different perspectives than mine, and I have found a few. However, this site seems to have an inordinate amount of what other sites refer to as Jackals and Hyenas; people who hang out on the periphery, offer no intelligent input, fling insults and just make a general nuisance of themselves.
I have found from previous experience that it is best to simply ignore carrion eaters; unless they get too close, and then you have to do what is necessary. So, in the future, I intend to ignore the carrion eaters, unless they get too close, or there gets to be too many of them. In which case, I guess I’ll just have to move camp.
