A relatively small percentage of the time, I'm inclined to use fierce satire anyway because it's the clearest, easiest, most effective way to highlight truth for the lurkers. I believe that it has been much more than a relatively small percentage of the time. Secondly, the truth of what? And in closing; Jesus did not say "Learn from me for I am fierce and satirical at heart".

Picking and choosing from my sentences is not any wiser than picking and choosing proof texts.

It would appear that the whole of what I said was quite missed.

Not surprisingly, actually.

It’s fascinating to me . . .

RC edifice reps rail at Prottys for

“”””\telling them what they are doing that they aren’t/””” etc.

But doing the same the other direction is somehow quite righteous.

Must have something to do with the rubber bible, rubber histories, rubber logic and rubber theology.

No, but he did speak in parables. That was the equivalent of satire at the time. :)
