"Thus, all you have done is to gratuitously insult all those on FR who think differently than you."

You're right. I should have said that it was idiotic thinking, not that they were idiots. To those who were thinking I was I calling them, personally, an idiot, I apologize.

To the rest of you with an IQ over 50 who knew what I really meant when I said that, nevermind.

Personal attacks are just that. Some people are unable to distinguish between the messenger and the message, to objectively and logically argue against a position with which they disagree - and the manner in which you put forth your views makes it seem as if you're one of those people. I don't know if that's the case or not, but your wiseacre crack about IQ and your "nevermind" indicate that your apology is insincere at best, and they tend to make me think that you are in the group that I described above.

You know, it is possible that your arguments in this (and other threads on similar topics) are correct - but your attitude turns people off from trying to analyze your stated facts and your reasoning. I think that most people here would give your POV a fair hearing - but you push them the other way. Help yourself - go buy an attitude adjustment.
