The story reminds me of claims made about Mormon temple ceremonies and the anointing of private body parts. And likewise Mormon Freepers may accuse the poster of vicious error but he must not read the other Freeper's mind, i.e. that he intended to deceive.
Flame wars easily ignite when posters turn from issues to persons. Condemning the statement in no uncertain terms is not "making it personal." Debunking it is not "making it personal." Telling the poster he has been fed false information is not "making it personal."
I am sorry for posting this. I thought it would be similar to the subject at hand. This is not a lie on my part. It was something that was told to me, and that I have found very disturbing. I hope it is not true.
