Yes, after I asked you to clarify. You should have started with that. I'm still not convinced, though.

Don't care

Clear how? You're just making bald assertions and pretending it's common sense. Stop being evasive and just back up your claims already. I'm not even throwing any arguments at you. I'm just trying to get you to clarify your reasoning. Your previous posts don't help in this context, either.
I'm starting to suspect that you can't answer. Prove my assumptions wrong.
1. Well I stated it anyway . Your lack of being convinced is not my problem . I have stated my case on this thread end of story. If you can't see that link between Isis and the objections in those posts and how there are directly linked that's also not my problem.
2. Your caring or lack of is again not problem. I have stated my objection on this thread and that objection has applied to myself on occasion (but I have remedied it ) and it applies to Isis comment it can't clearer then that.
3. I have made no assertions (unless you count the entire case I have made on this thread an assertion ) the fact you can't see how Isis comment fits into it (considering I all but state it in the second post) then again not my problem . I have been as clear as I feel I can be. And I'm rewriting my whole case again.
4. I have answered . I have been clear (in three freaking posts that were clear enough for benny ) . I'm not being evasive . So I have nothing further to prove .

I will buy whatever I want, eat what I want, learn whatever language I want, and perform spiritual rituals or a rain dance if I damned well please.
I see nothing horrible about doing any of these things if someone wants.
Apart from I find spiritual rituals and dream catchers to be bullshit and a waste of time that is, which I suppose is kind of horrible in a way but that's a separate issue.
Then you have missed the point .
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
