"There is a huge difference between suggesting... or even stating clearly... that a position is narrow, illogical, counter to facts, subjective...etc.... and labeling the person as a bigoted, hate-filled asshole!"

Yes Bill, nice post, but I take slight issue with the point you make.
When you state that, " a position is narrow, illogical, counter to facts, subjective...etc"   It is important that you can back up that statement with a reasoned argument
The quads and other "liberal" ideologues avoid reason like the plague, simply relying on the hope that some of the mud which they fling sticks.
As I often say universal equality is a faith position.
