Ad hominem attack or not, this simple comment here, sums up what I had in mind. Thanks for the pithy remark. You did good.
Truth is, while many American's, including the vast majority of conservatives and republicans, remain very concerned, over the direction the US has taken since the 1930`s and even more so since the 1960`s, it's obvious, not everyone chooses to overreact in the manner you have. You and other libertarians have chosen to express your disgust for the American people and for our politics, through intense emotional rantings. What some would call, paranoia. You know, as in the fear of persecutory action being taken by civil authority, against your person. You've even taken that to another level and have accused me of being evil, immoral, unspiritual and unpatriotic. Frankly, you don't know me that well. In fact, you don't know me at all. But I know your type.
My my, you do have some deep rooted problems. Let me tell you, these personal problems you have expressed publically, are not going to be solved on FreeRepublic. They especially won't be solved, through a continued barrage of personal insults, based on ad hominem rhetoric. I call attention to your original post at #84, in which you took it upon yourself, to blow out of proportion, one small paragraph I wrote. You went off on a tantrum and carried forth with this emotional rage, onto your post at #324. WOW! Talk about irrational behavior!
In addition, your numerous references, to the religious shortcomings of others, indicate a strong intolerance for the religious beliefs of others. Some people use religion as a way of reaching God and bonding with like minded worshippers, in the same faith. However, you use religion like a crutch, to bang over the heads of those who disagree with your personal interpretation of life on Earth. The idea that one version of divine intervention, may be different then another, doesn't seem to play a role in your thinking. The idea that you can label people as unbelievers and throw around personal rhetoric as gospel, is just more of the same, intolerence on your part. Many people believe their personal relationship with "God", is no one elses business. That happens to be my belief too, but I don't question the faith of others, in order to make me feel superior, as you have done. So if you find it necessary to quote Biblical occurances, may be you should remember, your faith may not be, the faith of others. Stop being such an intolerent and sancitomious hypocrite. I don't believe God appreciates you representing his holiness and divinity, in such a callous and self-righteous fashion.
These ideas you preach, that half of the people in America are caught up in the madness of communism; that we're all going to be dragged away, kicking and screaming, to a re-education camp; that all the children will be taken from the parents, because their personal morality isn't in concert with the community; that American's will be imprisoned for their religious beliefs; that people will be jailed for expressing free speech, these are scare tactics, often used by the leftwing in America, over the last fifity years. They've been used to freighten American's and make them fearful of what the future holds. This is a form of political terrorism and sadly, is in keeping with the the outrageous, ridiculous and dangerous tactics of libertarians. This irrational and reactionary behavior you have exhibited, has absolutely nothing in common with the wisdom and the practical nature of the Founding Fathers.
Now let's see if you can start to behave yourself and have respect for your fellow FReepers. Let's see if you can engage in civil political discourse, without attacking anyone, for having the cojones to disagree with you.
I'm still waiting for an apology on that one, and may report the offender if I don't get it.
