Ansell, I’m sure you’re a great guy, but 1) please don’t post something without giving a bit of information about it. It may or may not be something I want to take the time to read, but without any info, I’m not going to bother. If you really think it’s important enough for me to take my time to read it, then give me a bit of information as to what and why.

Secondly, you asked a few minutes ago about why the personal insults, and I didn’t see any particularly personal insults, but sometimes people come on so strong, so impervious to any opinions or ideas other than their own that they come across as self-righteous and obnoxious. I’m not saying that’s what you did, but I am saying that that sort of approach makes it hard for others to hear what you have to say. Communication is a two-way street and all that stuff.

Oddly enough, many of us tend to believe what we have to say is just as important and informed as what others may have to say. Sometimes we’re even correct in that belief.

You had an exchange about Catholics and baptism, and I helpfully directed you to a post on this thread, as someone that reads every post on a thread anyway, I sure assumed that people would at least look at a post that they missed on the very thread that they are on.
