Rig--

You continue to "educate the unthinking". Gee, that's an essential task. Too bad you misspelled it. Actually what you do is "alienate the rest of the world".

Pardon me for suggesting that serving chili to the homeless might be more useful than dispensing towering arrogance on behalf of "secularism", combined with perfect ignorance of anything else. Which unfortunately is all you have proven. Sorry about this--when we had our immigration debate you seemed like somebody interested in making sense. That's gone now.

You're not helping your cause.

You may possibly call me arrogant--why do I think this is likely?--but

1) I know something about the beliefs of people who don't agree with me, and I quote from their own words.   You only know how to draw an obviously false caricature of all those who disagree about the worth of religion. Some fundamentalists may fit your caricature--but you ignore the fact that the overwhelming majority of believers--in any religion--don't.

2) I advocate tolerance--live and let live. What you advocate is the opposite--do we need citations from your collected works?


By the way, you're also wrong about Chavez. Or do you think all the students who protest his moves are funded by the CIA? Do you subscribe to that caricature also?   Was his recent idea to change the political rules so he could run for office forever just fine with you? How about the other idea that he could personally name governors of the various states?   Are you aware that he did not want to concede defeat on the referendum but his top generals told him they would not put down any revolt stemming from his overturning the results?

Or does it just boil down for you to: the end justifies the means?
