I scanned your posting history, Jorge, since you so politely recommended that I do so.

I'm flattered.

Even I'm not impressed enough with myself to scan my own posting history.

And I'm SURE not interested enough in YOU to scan yours.

Nice to know that you don't treat me differently from the way you treat everyone else on this forum.

What's wrong with the way I've treated you?

With contempt and condescension. You've been overtly, abrasively combative, with no need to be so. Certainly, this issue is hot-button with some, but you'll find most folks on this forum are like-minded on many or most issues.

I was taught the point of argument is to persuade--if not one's opponent, then those listening to or reading the argument. Even someone sympathetic to your point of view would be alienated by your tone.

Lighten up.

If you enjoyed the book, why do you not want others to read and learn from it?
