Well, actually I would suspect - its more sarcastic posts like yours
as well as a seeming lack of support. Looking back over the posts their are
only maybe 30 people or so who post regularly - so I guess lots of folks
lurk. I think for someone who voluntarily stepped in to help out, with
little or no knowledge of the topic - he is doing a fine job.
No doubt he is. I was commenting on the fact that Jasper appeared to be
looking for "attaboys" from the balance of the subscribers.
I read your
posts where you guys do your burping, farting, male posturing and try
prove yourselves top dog - talk about acting like 6 year olds!!
I believe this is known as a "red herring".
Frankly, if
I voluntarily gave my time to something - to be nice and the people gave me
shit - I would be gone too!
I'm with ya' there, but if Jasper chooses to make a stand on a list issue
he's bound to face those who disagree
One of the 13 fallacies in arguing is the attacking the person.... not the
issue.
Thirteen? From whence comes this number?
By the way - I never did get your defense or explanation on
Christianity. I am meeting another Minister for lunch tomorrow and education
him on Paganism. He is part of an Interfaith Alliance.
Good for you! No, you haven't gotten the apologetic yet, 'tis true. Taking
care of a wife dying from cancer does tend to cut into one's free time a
bit, so I haven't been able to work on it as much as I'd like, so I do
apologize for that (seriously, I should have kept you up-to-date where I was
on that). You may have noticed that I haven't posted to the forum much
lately--for the same reason.
You know, doing all the housework, driving to oncologist's appointments,
maintaining a viable job and generally trying to make life as comfortable
and normal for my family as possible sure cuts into the time I have for
burping, farting and "male posturing". Maybe when Laura finally does pass
I'll be able to go back to being myself--you know, the oppressor of so many
faceless, nameless womyn--only useful for sexual release and personal gain.
