i re-read your post and totally agree, there was nothing inflammatory in what you said.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This has **nothing** to do with inflamatory. It has everything to do with being a strawman argument!

Softball moms said, "I do hate to burst your bubble though, but good parents come from every spectrum of society, not just those that are in your church."

The above is a strawman. Rational posters will see this immediately and I stand by the following:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This is a strawman! I did **not** say that good parents ONLY come from my church.

What am I supposed to do? Argue against a strawman of **your** creation?

Only nearly every thread, you will use strawman arguments.

Do you do use strawman arguments routinely in your personal and professional life? Doing this to your own children would be **very** disorienting to a young child, and might account for some of their learning and behavior difficulties. They are defenseless against this debating technique. I certainly hope that you are not doing this to your children in your classroom. It would be educational and emotional child abuse.

Your comments to me (twice made)are abusive and out of place in this forum. While I am greatly tempted to do so, I will not stoop to your level and personalize your comments made to me to you and your life.

Please: NO profanity, NO personal attacks, NO racism or violence in posts applies to each of us, including you and including me.

The only "strawman" in what SBMV had to say is the one in your imagination.
