You know Seattle, this illustrates the point Lingo and Tex have tried to make. That in spite of the board's attempts to be a space for exchange of all viewpoints, those with conservative or perhaps less-academic positions are often demeaned/dismissed in rather condescending fashion.
It is one thing to point out the weaknesses in someone's position. It is another to resort to sarcastic insults.
But BDB is clearly capable of her own defense, so I will leave it to her (if she returns) to address your comment.
