66. So THERE! Nyaaah! (I Guess She Told YOU!)
There's nothing quite like being put in your place by having someone stick out their tongue at you and stomped their feet as they angrily storm out of the room!

You must be feeling pretty humble now, huh? :eyes:

>> I have respect for your right to believe whatever it is you believe. <<

Except when it comes to your use of words that she disapproves of.

>> Refering to some ones beliefs as a myth is rude <<

So in other words, if you don't accept HER premise that it's not a myth, and if you DARE to express your OWN point of view, then you're just being rude!

Trotsky, can you think of a better way to shut off a discussion than by INVENTING ways to be "offended" by every position and every word that the other side might use?

I guess it's a coping mechanism... it's easier for some to avoid rather than to face facts, or to have to deal with others who have a different perspective on things.
