If you were ever a theist...

[God of Mr. Hanky]

Oh hell, if I am seen to be that way (vitriol for those who just want to have a discussion), that was hardly my intent! I'm aware that I have at times overreacted with some, because the issue touches a nerve and I regret that dearly. It's true that when I was here about a month ago, despite my motivations being the same, I was reacting to the airing of ideas which disturbed me and seeing less the person behind them, which is easy to do when you can only see what they post. I'd like to think I've mellowed some since I've been here. There's still a place for vitriol with those who are going to be arrogant about their ideas and waste your time when you try and explain your position as if you had said nothing, that I cannot tolerate, and I doubt that one should.

Anyway, thanks for the url.

you keep misunderstanding me!  I wasn't accusing you of being vitriolic.  I was simply saying that I am not vitriolic, either, to any Theist that just wants to discuss the issue.  It's only those with an agenda that I take umbrage with.

Ok, you see I do tend to read into things people say, sorry  The truth is that I'm guilty of that, got that guilty mind thing going
