“...lying and misleading with your crap...” “You know good and well...”, “almost all those closed off Mormon threads are posted by anti-Mormons on here just to pi$$ people off”
With due respect to, and acknowledgement of, the fact that these statements may comprise, and be accurately reflective of your considered opinion (which you absolutely have a right to arrive at, and hold)...
I believe that “lying and misleading” is a mischaracterization of someone else’s remarks, and that writing “you know...” and “posted here just to pi$$ people off...” are volatile and unfortunate statements which place you in the position of what moderators often refer to as “mind-reading”: in effect, you are claiming that you are able to infer or divine the unstated motives of others for their posts.
I have not been involved in those same threads, but I have been involved in threads which may meet the definition of being similar, in that they represent a spirited discussion among mormons and Christian anti-mormonISM factions.
A great deal of latitude is given in “open” threads like that, but two types of disruptors are specifically discouraged or not allowed.
1} Those who are too thin-skinned to effectively and civilly deal with the almost free-for-all nature of the debate wherein anyone’s beliefs may be challenged in rough terms, and
2} those who cannot engage themselves without making it personal...that is, to either level criticism at individuals, or to impute certain beliefs to them in particular, or to “mind-read” by claiming to know what they are thinking, meaning, or inferring - without respect to such a conclusion not being readily apparent in the body of their posts
In my opinion, based upon my reading of your post # 46, (which I excerpted portions of) you appear to currently fit into both of the aforementioned types.
I do not know, and will not guess at your motives for this. I am not your enemy; I am calling your attention to how something appears to me. You are free to correct my impressions if I misunderstand.

I don’t believe I was writing to you. Are you sticking up for your child? That is sweet.
