I've said many and sundry genuinely funny things on this board. Many of them have been, its true, at critic's expense, and perhaps that's why you didn't perceive them as funny.

How do you feel about apostates being put to death for leaving their faith?



I think its perfectly fine as long as its between consenting adults in the privacy of their own homes...


Well, it's nice to see your devotion to dogma hasn't quite caught up to the more devout members of the human family. Cheers to moderation.

Yeah, I know you often think you're being funny, but more often than not, you're just saying "talking" to music. That alone can't make something funny.

Our sense of humor is simply different, that's all.

I think that comes with different views of the universe.

Wow. I think you just had a break-through!

Recasting your original statement doesn't exactly clarify. If it's the coward's way out, please explain why.

Nah, conservatives actually attempt to make sense. I know I do.

Lately I'm having a tough time keeping up on threads and didn't see this one is a few days old. Runtu, this situation was perfect, it couldn't have been better. Irrespective of what he said, he believed you, or at least he's very afraid you are right. If you approached him in some kind and gentle way, immediatly you have an agenda. The fact is, he was eavesdropping. Someone came to you with a question, you matter-of-factly proceeded to answer with documentation. And he was watching. There was absolutely no way for him to question your authenticity.
