Welll, I was quite puzzled. Which is why I wanted a more substantive clear response

Oh, bull. You didn't want more substantive responses. You accuse me of "favoring" communism, yet you are unable to come one with one sentence in my posts to back up your asinine, ridiculous assertions.

I had a hard time explaining to myself such sentences, paragraphs, phrases

Which ones? And if you can't explain them, why don't you ask for an explanation before shooting from the hip? Is that too humble for you?

It was hard to even imagine why such a perspective would be so seemingly proffered . . . especially by one wish such a background

What perspective did I offer? I simply outlined the differences between various political and social regimes, without endorsing a single one.

It’s still hard.

Well, I can't help you there.

Perhaps there’s just an intellectual fascination with hair-splitting over definitions and specifics of the world Communist push of the globalists?

It's good to know your enemies' differences. Ignorance is never an asset.

I really don’t understand the origin of such pontifications

That's obvious. Besides, facts are not "pontifications," except to those who don't understand.

BTW, posting in a public forum is invitation enough to respond

True, but it is also a matter of respecting another human being who doesn't wish to waste his time with you, which you obviously choose to ignore for the sake of attention.

I already told you: stop posting to me. I have no interest in your blather. You are not offering anything of substance that interest me. All you do is shoot form the hip and offer nothing worthy of a response. I don't care for your comments. Get it?

I am guilty of shooting from the hip more than a time or 3.

In this case . . . I didn’t per se read any blatantly clear sentences supporting Communism.

But I had a hard time understanding what the seemingly deliberate inferences were supposed to be. I figured my provocative style would ferret things out one way or another. Seems to have clearly done so.

I’m not convinced that simply asking you a straightforward question is the best way or even a consistently likely way to garner enlightenment from you.

True, but it is also a matter of respecting another human being

The reprobate deserve no respect. To disrespect them, to display discourtesy, is a sign of faith and election. Indeed to fail to behave in such a way is to call one's own special status with God into question, and to fail to take advantage of the gifts God has given one.

It's a corollary to the notion that any discourtesy shown to the reprobate is the fault of the reprobate for daring to express an opinion or otherwise call attention to himself. The things we say and do demand and impose a duty on the elect to show contempt .
