The hatred of apologists goes that deep?

I'm genuinely impressed that you've managed to deduce "deep hatred" from that phrase.

But it's true. I spend approximately 15.5 hours of the typical day quivering with overpowering rage, and I suspect that I'm a pretty typical apologist in that regard.

I mean, I'm no fan of the LDS church, FARMS, L-skinny [sic], the SCMS [sic], or the Ku Klux Klan [!!!], but I've never developed my hatred to developing some deep psychosis that prevents me from even bringing up web pages affiliated with these groups.

The only other way to read this is that they are too "bored" and disinterested to open the page, which would clearly be a lie.

Yeah, the lengths they go to feel superior. Sigh.

LOL. On the basis of a pretty harmless little opening clause, you depict apologists as pitiable, psychotic, consumed with hatred and . . . imagining themselves to be superior!

Can irony be much more blatant than this?

But I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about the guy who said what I quoted. I don't know if this bothers you, but I think you're an ok guy. If I were to assign a grade, "A" being the most hateful attributes of apologetics and "F" being apologists who are civil and truly pure of heart, you'd get a "C".
Lou Midgley 08/20/2020: "...meat wad," and "cockroach" are pithy descriptions of human beings used by gemli? They were not fashioned by Professor Peterson.

LM 11/23/2018: one can explain away the soul of human beings...as...a Meat Unit, to use Professor Peterson's clever derogatory description of gemli's ideology.

I believe it was Louis Midgley.

I've been acquainted with Lou for the better part of four decades -- an amazing thought, even to me (I never thought I'd be this old) -- and have known him quite well for roughly three decades. If Lou is consumed with hatred, I'm Master Scartch hisself. Notwithstanding the amazing efforts made by many apostate critics.

Aw shucks, he says, blushing.
