I've gone toe to toe with you and handed you your ass. More than once. You don't get to dismiss me because I'm a mere undergraduate-- from lowly BYU, no less!
I think you've done very well here. I'm not surprised he's restorted to the dismissive routine.

LOL. Condescension is the worst insult possible.

I sense you didn't get a star on your forehead at a very critical juncture in your life as a little Sunbeam. Shame on your Jr. SS teacher.

Back to the topic at hand, why do you care?

Back off. Nobody talks to my woman that way.

Just as an aside, please do not start any more sanctimonious posts asking people to refrain from bickering.

You have been the prime bickerer in this entire thread.

I still think you are hot, though, in a nubile, undergrad, Capitol Hill page sort of way.

As an aside, please don't post any more sanctimonious requests for others to avoid being sanctimonius.

I've got to hand it to you; I've never seen anybody so consistently and invariably able to stare at black and say it's white. I don't know if it's because you've mastered the art of mental compartmentalization so as to protect your particular world view, or if it's a deliberate attempt to stir the pot and you don't believe a word you're saying. Either way, keep it up; by showing how vapid the arguments of the opposition are, you do the work of a thousand apologists. Try not to get too lonely in solitary irrelevance.

True, but its only it's only effective if its target has reason to perceive that he is inferior in some way. When someone uses it defensively because they are outgunned one simply feels pity.

You're letting him get your goat. Now I feel sorry for both of you.

Hold on, there. You are being unfair.

I wasnt being sanctimonious. I was being judgmental.

Well, I had hoped for something a little more substantial than the typical back and forth, but you're right-- I let myself get dragged in it. I'm done.

Thanks to ER and others for your contributions.
