    it sounds like you are either 1) denying that you do this or 2) saying that even if you do, it's other people's faults for finding it offensive or demeaning. in either case, it sounds like you're trying to avoid any fault or taking responsibility for your choices in argument.
    What I am saying is that when people misread me, that's entirely on them. It seems very obvious to me. When they accurately read me, great.

    If someone is judging me, they won't know when they are misinterpreting me or not--as they cannot see my intent. Again, like my accusation of genie. Communication is for a large part non-verbal and the non-verbal cannot be seen on message boards.

    I am usually general in what I say, so as to not project on others. If people want to take my words and apply them to themselves, I just don't own that.

    I realize when I am staying general and not being personal I do hit "home" for many and it frustrates people particularly when they don't like my view, and particularly if my view is offensive to them. They hook into that and internalize what I say. I don't control their actions, and how they respond. I do give myself license to speak my views, even the less popular ones. Especially the less popular ones.

    mmm....don't know. lets use this bunker for games ( bowling, darts, tennis etc ) then let's stock up on guns, and upon Xenu's arrival lets fight him together. oh, and this is what you can do for me in return.....if life or death situation comes, will you save my life risking yours?

    i'm always nasty to everyone. i freely admit to being an asshole and have never denied that. it often takes several pages (or 3-5 in this case it seems) to get you to admit when you've been caught doing this kind of thing.
    right..........so your "wrong" is better..........

    What's this about denial???? When there is no justification there is no justification. Whether it's something you've done, or something I've done.

    i don't believe that. jim jones is worse than me. so it hitler. all people are not equal. i'm smarter than someone with mental retardation and i'm not as crazy as tom cruise.
    You're referring to ego definitions, such as "smarter", or moral definitions which are arbitrary. I am not. I'm referring to who you are. You are not your behaviours, or your intelligence.

    You are no better or worse than Hitler or Tom Cruise.

    that's actually why i responded to you at first. i liked the fact that you were giving less popular view. I did not agree with it, but i still thought it was great that there was a person giving different view on things.

    I think the problem for some people ( i'm not talking about anyone on this board, but about few other people i know of ) becomes when the other person does not agree with them. so the try very hard to prove their point, and when all fails they just tell the other person to shut up and get angry.

    I agree.

    When I make general statements that show that I for example disagree with you (or others), I also respect that you are equal to me, and you can express your view in a fair way, and in this case, you openly said you disagreed with me. There was no reason to try to change each other's views. The best we can ever hope for is to influence each other. Influence is great, because it happens when people are calm and keep the communication flowing. And it happens when someone is open to it and chooses to accept it. I've personally learned a lot on this board through influence. Frankly, when people beat me over the head with stuff, I shut it out.

    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    My brother's one of the top barristers in the UK, and I just emailed him with that statement. He gives nine thumbs up and says you'll do well in the profession. ;)
