Yeah, this is a good way of putting it. Thanks for getting it.

I profusely apologized to you publicly. What I said was nasty, uncalled for, and unChristian. Is there no forgiveness? Have you ever apologized to me for the truly appalling things you have said to me? Maybe you have but I do not remember. Have you not noticed how I consistently overlook your personal insults to discuss areas of intellectual disagreement?
I have, Neo.
"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."
