No, I say that in response to your endorsment of CL. I usually enjoy her posts as a reasonable counterweight to some of our resident theists. But it's her derailing many topics to abortion these days bothering me.
This was disappointing to read coming from you Abaris because you are someone I like on here and consider a friend.
I don't know of any other threads I've "derailed" lately besides this one which I've apologized for and moved on from. Though even with this one I wouldn't say I'm solely responsible for the derailment bc it was someone else who asked about when life starts, though I shouldn't have jumped in and given my own views on it.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
