Oh? What "facts" would that be, Arach? And where did I "attack" you? When I pointed out how terrible the post was constructed? When I said it lets people know you are either uneducated or inconsiderate? When I said you aren't a liberal atheist as you so claim? Those aren't attacks, they are merely the way it is. But please, continue to claim you are something you aren't, while railing against all things liberal and atheist.

I told them, well, the people complaining really need to back off if i am missing blocks of info for them.

Since then, I just don't don't care what you think. put me on ignore. In fact, let every anti-god socialist put me on ignore. But I will still be responding to them.
I don't put people on ignore. I am an adult that can handle my own business without the need for such things.

Oh, and have a good night. I am out until tomorrow or later.

My husband is mildly dyslexic, and managed to write a novel on his own, and even when making errors, you can usually tell what he meant.
Yes, I know you are relatively new to this forum. If you did a search on his name with the keyword "dyslexia" you would see.

I'm not that familiar with it, so I don't know enough to address your other points.

All I know is that in almost ten years of reading some of the most godawful writing on City-Data, I've learned tolerance.

I did ok without the degree. After a while, people just assumed I had one. When I retired, my successor was a guy with a J.D.

Sometimes a part of our brain just doesn't function.
thats right mighty, rational people have disconnects somewhere, it just a matter of where they settle. I'll admit, I can be too straightforward.

Its just very straightforward to me. if their claim is wrong, what is your claim and lets check them both out.

I just can't see railing on believers and not holding our team to the same standard. Especially when some claims can be tied directly into the standard model.

whatever 90's ...

you keep doing you and I'll keep not worry about you addressing my grammer.

and you don't decide what liberal atheism is. In fact, if youre with the anti-god sect, you aren't liberal atheist either.

My youngest son is dyslexic. Spellcheck doesn't help. He can change the highlighted word five times and it still comes up red. So, after years, he doesn't bother. About every third or fourth word he texts or emails me is misspelled but can be in the phonetic ballpark. His job doesn't require writing skills and those who know him, learn to read him.

I realize that some of Arach's posts are hard to parse. But many are worth the effort.

So sayeth the socialist, liberal from Canuckistan whose country took part in both WWs from the first shot to the last.

That may true for some, who knows? I know it's not true for me. My questions about death start with life.
As I said before, everyone else seems to have adjusted just fine to death but I've always had unresolved questions. Nowadays, I view death as a system malfunction... the operator is still there but the system is caput, like a broken radio for example.

You need a war. of course you will get one, and we will have to go over their again and bail you out.
Your repeated BS on this subject is still wrong and I've already told you where you are wrong. You came because you were attacked yourself not to help us out. If you could have had you way, your war would have been in the Pacific against Japan...and screw Europe. Your country saw it as a foreign war that was of no concern to them (in both world wars). You should read more history and watch less John Wayne films. Do you even know that Woodrow Wilson's winning election slogans during WWI were ...'He kept us out of the war.' and 'America First'.

So yeah. Thanks for your help, we appreciate it but in reality, we owe you no more than we owe Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, France and quite a few countries that were in it from the start not just the last year when it was almost over...and for the record, we owe you a damn sight less that we owe those 'filthy commie Russian bastards' that you hate so much, who lost 10,000,000 during the war. Read that again fella 10,000,000! The war was over after Stalingrad, thanks to those 'filthy commie Russian bastards' and THEN you guys come in singing 'The Yanks are Coming' and expecting us to be eternally kissing your arse for it. Yeah, you're right. It does make me mad.

I wasn't aware of that and if so I'll cut him some slack. However, if his posts are almost unreadable, that is what they are and he must be told.

In that case, stop getting pissy when people say that they can't understand what you are saying.
