You left one out:

Best Example of Vincible (and Culpable Ignorance Award
jilliane
For skipping the all important "check the facts" step before calling people judgmental and hypocritical while criticizing them for things they never said.

Am I right in assuming that this is your way of saying that you have no arguments and no interest in argument.

I especially enjoyed the part where sound Church teaching was said to be an attempt to get cover for my vote for Obama.

And more than that, I enjoyed the readiness with which you took responsibility for misunderstanding the article that the thread was about ("so poorly written" I think you said).

Do have a nice time. It's always interesting to meet someone who is error free and "wise in their own conceits".
