Which doesn't anwser the question. I personally don't understand why it's a pity. But hey, I'm might just be a Christian who looks at it unemotionally. It seems to be an emotional issue for most.

I answered your question by telling you to seek the debate. My comment wasnt an invitation to debate with you otherwise I would have addressed you by a ping.
I havent once shown emotion in this debate. I dont count my "pity" comment filled with tear jerking emotion, either.

I asked why YOU said it was a pity. Not someone else. You choose to defer to others and not say why YOU think it's a pity, oh well. No problem for me.

Any post by anyone is an invitation to comment on it. That's why this is a bulletin board.

And I never said or even implied that you did.

Never said you did. I said many did, and I'm not one of them.
