I could be wrong about you as an individual. If so, I apologize. Perhaps you would explain how you wouldn't belong to a faction in society that would work to outlaw certain activities and behaviors?
.
But, in defense of my post, I only put things together that you have posted here from time to time.
.
If I'm wrong, I apologize. Somehow, I think I am more correct on you than not.
.
Have you not made some pretty strong statements about Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins?
.
Even if I am wrong about you, I am right on when it comes to the general Christian Right.

I've never posted at anytime that I would Vote for outlawing Abortion in our pluralistic society. I'm undecided and conflicted about whether government has any role to play. I am against Abortion and I would never counsel a person to have one. If the life of the Mother was in question, then that Mother and Father should decide. But I have never been in that terrible situation.

Like what? I have disagreed with the Atheism. When have I or anyone else here advocated censorship?

Even if I am wrong about you, I am right on when it comes to the general Christian Right.

The general Christian Right? I didn't know there was such a thing. I think you mean the Media Version or the Pundits who you believe represent conservative Christians. Even if you can actually produce a face and a quote, it doesn't give you carte blanche for demonizing your enemies or adding more hate speech to the mix. If you are going to spend your days opposing just about everything the bible says and everyone who holds to Jesus as Lord and Savior, then at least do your homework and provide specific reasonable examples. General accusations and rude speech is not good debate.

You are a slippery old codger, I have to say.

The 'homework' and 'specific reasonable examples' have been provided here ~frequently~. I know I've provided much of it. Perhaps you've just ignored what has been posted, or poo-pooed it as nonsense because it didn't jibe with your particular POV. We all do that to some extent, but to say that homework hasn't been done and examples haven't been offered is incorrect.

Here is another example of a type of rudeness. Was my post directed towards you? Did you just jump into the fray because you believe that you should stand up for a friend? That part is a good thing. But jumping into the middle of a post not directed towards you is pretty bad behavior, imo.

I was doing the homework before you were born. That is, just in case you were addressing me and in the event you were thinking that, perhaps, I had not done it.
.
Like I said in another thread, some folks just cannot handle criticism. But, criticism is the thing that allows us to get a different look at ourself. The criticism you offer me was begun when I was still a child less than ten years old. I saw through hypocracy then and I see through it today.

What was your idea on this question? Your homework? What did you think that I had said about the gentlemen?

Your comments about those two authors gave me some of the evidence available for anyone to make any assumptions about your basic character--the one you market here.

That, and stand up for the truth - which you distorted, Jones. If you think that's rude of me or bad behavior, well that's just tough toenails.
