I'm beginning to see how this works: One can post anything insulting and contemptuouos about the faith of another as long as it's done by exchanging such posts with another "compadre" but avoiding making it ad hominem to a particular poster. The results are the same but there are no consequences. It can be called "trash the faith but not the faithful". I believe it actually ends up not changing any minds at all, so it all seems counter-productive.

It's a two way street. I'm quite used to be calling a self interpreter and a schismatic and a bible idolater.

Right.

And I mostly don't have a BIG problem with that. It's just when the thin skins and double standard stuff gets shrill that I get real annoyed.

And, of course, I am grieved and annoyed at anything I see which corrupts, flies in the face of the basic Core Gospel and God's high 10 Commandment priorities.

But we have to have labels to have efficient discussion. That's fine with me. I can even handle fierce and pointed labels from the opposition with amazing calmness . . . providing they do the same.
