"a vague position"..."lashing out".    Uh, not exactly.   So sorry if you don't like being quoted directly--which is exactly what I have done.    In a discussion which in large part centered on teaching of Christianity to children, you brought up genital mutllation--which has precisely no bearing on the topic--except in a very twisted mind.

If you don't appreciate being quoted directly, there is one revolutionary idea I could suggest to you:    start thinking before you hit "send" .

It seems a reasonable notion--perhaps you might try it.
