No it's a game you like to play.

The error in your reasoning is that you think that playing games is the end
all and be all of existence and that civility has no place.

It's not semantic games, it's conceptual knowledge and reasoning.

How can one offend a group without offending the individual members of a
group?

If a negro calls other negroes the "N" word is that offensive?

I have two very close Jewish friends who, in general, dislike Jews. Yes,
they're both from New York. Are they racist? If I dislike Jews for the
same reason am I a racist?

The error in your reasoning is that you think everyone thinks like you and
you have no consistent standards of what is offensive.

I'm proud to say that I am not prejudiced. I strive to offend everyone
equally.

Amen!

Play all the semantic games you want. It's offensive, and anyone who does
it is a troubled person.

Can the same be said about murder?

If one is murdered it's ok?

If a vast group is, then it's not?

So how does one offend a group without offending the members
individually?

So you are prejudiced against minorities, especially the smallest one,
the individual?

No one cares if it offends you. The point is that it offends the vast
majority of a people.

Doesn't offend me in the least. Ever hear our rendition of the 3

They're cowering in brick pigs house when he makes a call. Instantly a
big limo
pulls up. Four big pigs get out, stomp the crap out of the wolf, put a
gun in
his mouth and blow the top of his head off. Then they get back into
the limo,
run over him a couple times, then drive off. Jeeze, says straw pig,
what was
that. Oh, just our cousins the guinea pigs ....

Let's back what you say with what one does. Who, over the years, has had a
more civil demeanor?

You or me?

Who has been reprimanded by their ISP for foul/abusive language?

You or me?

I would say that if I truly act as if civility has no place, then by that
standard alone you would be judged to be a savage.

For me enjoying life is the end all and be all of existence. I can make fun
of myself and of others. Who else uses the name of a 300 pound transvestite?

The fun I have here is pointing out hypocrisy in a jovial manner.

Why should I get mad at the abusive, the hypocrites, the mean spirited, the
irrational when I can have so much sport and entertainment with them in a
fun way?

Those people will never change, it's bred to the bone, so what's so bad
about mockery of the dysfunctional?

One last thing, if you ever did have a superior argument you would use it,
but alas, when reason is not on your side so you resort to other tactics.

Why can't you acknowledge and accept that others may be different? Why are
you so intolerant?

Don't bother responding. Those are just questions for you to think about.
Or, if you like, another game. Remember, I win if you respond.

Lighten up, life is too short and the world has too many problems - keep it
simple - just don't be one of the problems.

Amen!

Couldn't say. Do you think that because you end your posts with Amen, that
excuses bad behavior?

I certainly have *never* been reprimanded by my ISP for foul/abusive
language. Have you?

I think you're the one who needs to lighten up.

Don't games have winners and losers?

If I play games then the outcome would always be to win or lose.

I think one point of a game is playing to win, otherwise it's not a game.

I don't always win.

In this particular case we're both winners.

You got the last word, so according to you, you win!

I got you to respond, and as a condition of the game - I win!

A complete win-win situation!

Everyone can be a winner if they play by their own rules!!!

Amen!!!

Like I said, you really need to play your games and you really need to win.
That's ok. In this case, I'm not playing games so you or Mooron feel free to
have the last word. Scream it from the hill tops if that makes you feel more
human.

Just don't try and tell me that it's ok to say whatever you like just
because we have a thing called free speech. It's illegal to yell fire in a
crowded theater, it's disgusting to use racial epithets. It might not be
illegal to do the latter (nor should it be), but it doesn't need to be
condoned.
