BTW, if you notice my replies to your posts they are done without insults
to
you.


An accusation of lying is not an insult?



Not if it is the truth, which it is.

Not if it is the truth, which it is.

So, if I said "You're an asshole", and I thought it was the truth, that
wouldn't be an insult?

One of your central problems could be a tendency to automatically elevate your
own opinions to the category of unassailable truth. Under those standards, you
could never insult anybody- no matter what you said. Under the same standards,
you could easily be personally offended when people said things you considered
untrue, (only because they didn't fit your preferred view of the universe).
