This is getting really painful. I'm always at that crossroads with a theist: do know they are being dishonest, or do they really not understand at all?

What did I just say, about you not getting to decide whether you broke the rules or not?
Also, you seem to have this habit of just ignoring segments of posts that are inconvenient to you. Like what you did in your sig- both times- or every time I picked you up on your inaccurate understanding of evolution... or like right now, when you just ignored the very valid accusation of trolling to focus on minutia.
Oh, and see that, just there? When I used ellipses to indicate a pause, without necessarily disconnecting the thread of the discourse from the rest of the sentence? That's a thing. You're talking to someone who writes professionally here; this is my job, I've done that in published works before. My view of this is entirely valid, Mr. Quibbles. It doesn't matter to me, I'll add the first sentence. Like I said, it changes nothing.

Good, so now you have a signature that is a dishonest 'gotcha' attempt to show that I don't understand science, while I correct myself mere moments later.
Soooo much better. You seriously can't see that you're being dishonest?

Still not satisfied? Didn't see that one coming...

I'll take that as a no. I personally don't mind what of mine you quote where, but the fact that you can't even acknowledge that it's a shitty backhanded attempt at tu quoque-ing yourself into legitimacy is the more disturbing part.

So now you've gone from quote mining and trolling, to just trolling. Perhaps there's another breach of the rules you'd like to remove from your sig too, instead of just ignoring it, as though that'll make it go away?

Since when is quoting someone considered trolling? This would be the third time I've quoted someone In my sig, but the first time it's considered trolling.

Ah... it's been considered trolling the whole time Huggy, we're just getting sick of your dishonest bullshit, so it's being pointed out now.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I know obtuse faux-ignorance is like ninety percent of your argumentation, but don't fuck around with me: like your other sig, this one is here specifically to taunt another member over a perceived wrongdoing. That's also known as trolling, Huggy.

I've always felt your last sig was the same way, but I let it slide. Now, it's apparent that you're going to make a habit of this fatuous idiocy, and I can't let that stand in good conscience.

So are you saying as a mod that I must Change my signature, and that I am no longer allowed to quote someone in said signature?
I hope you realize this sets a precedent....
