Subject: RE: BS: Militant atheism has become a religion
Guffers rears his clottish head again! Old chap, I know better than to get mired with you in discussions of anything remotely serious. On that score thou hast shat in your own bed one too many times. Suffice to say that I do not admire my heroes of art or science for what they did or said outside the spheres for which they are most noted. I'll even put up with a bit of murkiness (Furtwangler and Richard Strauss were fabulous, though both had questionable connections with the Nazis. They just about pass my test. Wagner was a horrible man, antisemitic and racist, and would have made a good Nazi. I won't have his music in my house. I have got a red line). Riposte all you like, Guffo. I won't be responding. I have no intention, you see, of sitting at this keyboard of mine having to question my own sanity.
