I was highlighting the differences between our contrasting ideas and
perspectives, you prefer to use personal insults instead of debating our
different perspectives. My comment about you being a bigot was not an
insult, it was an observation that your comments and beliefs are bigoted.

Just as the comment that set you off, (that you couldn't understand my point
because you were choosing not to), was an observation, not an insult.

I'll have to remember the rules he

1. If Dr Dr Taco Whatever runs a side thread with one of his high fivers making
negative comments about Gould, those aren't insults, they are "observations".

2. If Dr Dr Taco Whatever calls Gould a bigot or any other derogatory name,
that is not an insult, it's an observation.

3. Any comment of any type made by Gould will be considered an insult for
purposes of seeking any excuse to diverit a thread into a series of personal
comments under the "But, Mommy, *he* started it!" treaty provision.

Once we have the rules defined, it becomes easier to anticipate your now very
predictable MO. I "observe" that your goal in a discussion is to drag it down
to a
level of insult exchange at the first opportunity. Too bad, really, as you
often seem a bit brighter than some folks who hang around only to fire off
insults.

(Watch those same bright folks take offense at that last sentence.) :-)
