Interfaith Group

Yes, you did make an allegation about me in post 23. That was true.
You ALSO made an allegation about the group, with the fatwa 'line' in post 5 about leadership/marching orders. I am not confused, nor attempting sleight of hand.

You did BOTH. I am not casually substituting one for the other. Both posts exist.


"Grow the fuck up and sling this hash elsewhere"
Hash was slung in post 5. I was pointing it out when I asked you to elaborate/give specifics. I do not, and will not 'sling hash' in this venue.


"Oh, and, Mr. Sky Daddy, don't talk to me about "trivializing a function of a major faith", with or without Wikipedia."

As I already mentioned, I play that game. You bet. I make no apologies for it. And I've gotten as good as I give. But I do it where the rules allow for it. It is expressly forbidden by the rules of this group. (A rule I have abided by, whenever posting here.)

(I have, to my knowledge and to the best of google's search function, never used that particular phrase, but I have certainly used other language along those lines, so I won't deny the sentiment, even though I never apparently said that.)

"teapots or unicorns"

A useful rhetorical tool in analyzing any unsupported claim. Where I imagine it comes across as vicious, would be in the recent abrasive delivery in the A&A or Religion venues, not the actual comparison. Bertrand Russell was no petty/crude cynic or comedian. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand_Russell
