And I find your use of smilies to be sometimes rather condescending but the way you intend your smilies to be interpreted has no bearing on the content of your arguments so the point of commenting on them before now was neither here nor there.
You wanna chalk it up to the nature of online discussion forum anonymity and carry on?
Lol. Well for the record, the smilies to you are meant to express friendliness and to show that I am not angry. I am not using them sarcastically. Glad you brought that up so I could make that clear, but if it bothers you, I won't do it anymore.
As for your question, it depends. If I feel I am being talked down to, I may stop responding if I start to get sick of it. You have the right to do the same, of course.
"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."
