Did I imply that it was? For fuck's sake, you read way more into what people write than what is there.

Cut me some slack here, remember, this is not verbal, it is text and text is much harder to interpret inflection and intent.

Once you get to know me, the worst you will think about me is "LAY OFF THE CAFFEINE"

And for fucks sake always remember that I like shiny objects.

Just consider me Luis Black, without the fame or the good jokes. Did I mention that my mom fed me lead paint and called it corn flakes?

Oh, hell no. When the point goes whooosh over your head as consistently as it does here, you get NO fucking slack.

Right because it is easier to assume guilt than accept that none of us are or ever will be perfect.

And "whooosh" to you isn't that I missed the point all the time, it is that I didn't agree with you. Common tactic in human history, atheists included.

This is a message board, and not even voice. When you can turn water into wine or fly on a broom like Harry Potter, then I will cede in every case that my shit stinks and I am always wrong.

Just as it's easy to express complex subjects in terms of false dichotomies.

Really? Is that why you implied that was some sort of absolutism in my post you quoted?

Nice strawman you got there.
