-> 
->  GD> How?  By calling points of issue of a religion a personal attack?

(to Dan:)
...uh...no. By making personal attacks. THAT is what is called personal
attack. When YOU make a personal attack, it is called and is, a personal
attack.
:-)
-> 
-> You lost the debate if all you can do is resort to a spit spewing
tirade.
-> 
-> Which all I have seen you do is grill Hulett and expect specific answers
from
-> him.
->

->  RC>> In case you havent noticed the last few moderations have come
against
->  RC>> those you would consider religionists.
-> 
->  GD> They are only here to abuse the openess of the echo in doing actual
->  GD> oersonal
->  GD> attacks. They have never added anything into the mix.
-> 
-> Maybe if you start qualifying your debating points with adult debate and
not
-> childish outbursts and name calling, nah, I am asking too much.
-> 
-> Is it me or has Mr Wilson noticed this as well?
-> 
->  RC>> No, your diversion is screaming about people using his real first
->  RC>> name, which is on every single legal document on file for him that
->  RC>> recognizes him as both an individual and as a citizen.
-> 
->  GD> It all comes down as yo how he identifies himself.
-> 
-> Irrelevant, you bringing up and ptotesting the usage of his name is a
-> diversion.
-> 
 GD>...The expressed purpose of this Echo is to have fun with their
->  GD> silly beliefs.
-> 
-> I told you that the expressed purpose of this echo was to open it up for
-> religious debate, the old days are gone.
 
-> You aint going to have debating opponents on the subject matter if you
drive
-> them away.
-> 
->  RC>> and are you not belittling Ed Hulett now over his Mormon faith and
->  RC>> your perception of his faith?
-> 
->  GD> I've seen his lack of faith in his holy book in action.  This Echo
is
->  GD> for calling those beliefs into question.
-> 
-> I didnt say otherwise.
-> 
-> But he is also free to question your beliefs or anyone elses.
-> 

-> 
->  GD> The entering of this Echo meant that one's religious beliefs were
-> fully open to question. Other personal business was not on the table.
-> 
-> Change that to read that enterring this echo, means everyones beliefs or
lack
-> thereof, are open to question.
-> 
-> "Belief" extends beyond religion, but you knew that.
-> 
A warmly read post.
