Again, you never address anything in my argument. For the record, your statements were ignorant and moronic. You made broad and unsubstanitated statements which showed your ignorance. You made them about people you don’t know based on information gained from publications you know have a record of fabricating stories about people or groups they don’t like; that’s moronic. You don’t speak to me because I defend people you’ve already decided are beneath contempt. You’ve gone from referring to my argument as a rant and now you want to call it a hissy-fit. I’m glad you’ve decided to elevate the intellectual level of the conversation. You insulted a group of people that I happen to know personally and regard highly. If you weren’t prepared to back it up with anything other than schoolyard taunts, then don’t post here. I may not be as measured in my responses as I should have been, but you hit a nerve. That doesn’t mean I will not contimie to challenge you. What else do you have besides “I didn’t say they were pedophiles”?
>> Again, you never address anything in my argument.
I thought I was clear. I’m not particularly interested in a back-and-forth bitch-fest with you.
>> You made them about people you don’t know based on information gained from publications you know have a record of fabricating stories about people or groups they don’t like; that’s moronic.
I didn’t make any statements about any individual, and never referenced any particular publication as the source of my opinions. Keep the insults coming, chief.
>> You don’t speak to me because I defend people you’ve already decided are beneath contempt.
I don’t speak to you (with mixed success) because you’re kind-of a pain.
>> You’ve gone from referring to my argument as a rant and now you want to call it a hissy-fit.
It is.
>> I’m glad you’ve decided to elevate the intellectual level of the conversation.
It didn’t have anywhere to go but up.
>> You insulted a group of people that I happen to know personally and regard highly.
Who? Gay priests? Priests generally?
>> I may not be as measured in my responses as I should have been, but you hit a nerve.
Oversensitivity is not a virtue.
>> What else do you have besides “I didn’t say they were pedophiles”?
Your initial argument was about placing a “Scarlet P” (for pedophile, I assume) on priests ... or something to that effect. It was a nonsequitur — I haven’t referred to anyone as a pedophile, or even referenced pedophilia at all ... thus your “scarlet P” argument doesn’t make any sense.
