[A.J.Armitage]

The point is, he's been thoroughly and totally shown to be wrong, and he can't stand it. So instead of defending his argument, which he can't because it's based on a factual error, he went off into insults. And the doofus got whipped there too. Incredibly, his reply to your message tells me to look at my first post to him to back up his attack, when I already quoted it because it shows he was making things up. That's the mentality we're dealing with.

[Quix]

We all get shown to be wrong sooner or later. And at times, we all can't stand it at some level. And at times, we all act out in our own way to greater or lesser degree.

I don't know that an 'ibid' can follow but anyway . . .

Such intense negative emotions tend to cloud reason and complicate clear, simple and mutually respectful dialogue.

I don't see that anyone on the whole of FR has sufficient Godliness to be haughty.

As all know, I can get strident, too. But I'm trying to wean myself except in rare, exceedingly warranted cases. It rarely if ever assists in dialogue or understanding.

And if it is not dialogue and understanding we are about, then perhaps a soap box at the nearest large intersection would be a better posting place.
