Reply #42: I Am Truly Confused. And Hurt. [View All]

[outinforce]

I am truly confused here, tom_paine.

In a recent post, I think you suggested that I had an "overatcive ego".

But now I see you suggesting that I have an ego which has been bruised.

Let me assure you that my ego is in great shape -- not overactive, and certainly not bruised.

I am also hurt that you have feelings of hostility for me. Although I do appreciate your honesty in conveying your feelings to me, still, it does hurt to know that someone else harbors feelings of hostility against me.

And could you clear up one other little thing for me.

You say in this post that your "first post was a very civil "invitation to debate"

That "very civil invitation to debate", was that the one your headlined thus: "First off, nice diversionary Straw Man"??

The one which also suggested that I was bandying semantics about?

Why, I can't imagine how I could have missed the civility -- the "very" civility -- of that post.
