I wonder if that is what is behind the obvious hatred of those on the

at us.

Wow, I didn't know that voicing an opposing opinion showed a sign of
hateful paranoia.

Why don't you leave the 'striking ' to JPS and Frogwatch. Well that
really couldnt' be fair, because Frog actually does put forth a
boating post occasionally.


I'm not sure he meant paranoia, Tim-ster.

Paranoia implies persecution, someone or something is "out to get you."
I think Paul was referring to internalized demons, that is, "I believe
in X. But he doesn't. Why doesn't he? It should be obvious. It is to me.
But wait, if he doesn't believe it, maybe it is worth doubting. I'll
compensate by trying to slam him to the mat."

That sort of thinking. :) No threat from the outside, just inner doubts.
