ming, It was a throw away line. It is not my intention to be drawn into an 'us vs. them' debate.
I object to having words put into my mouth. I am tired of being accused of intellectual hautiness, and I am tired of being cast as a member of some nefarious cabal.
I do NOT think that the members of this board are stupid. Although if there are any here that think that I am part of some organised movement, then I am afraid that they might qualify.
I do NOT think that the 'like minded longs' are delusional, although some of the arguments presented here sometimes lean in that direction. It is my experience that people are more inclined to believe things that benefit them and resist those things that might not. On the other hand, when they are presented with a rational evenhanded argument that explores all facets of an issue, they are quite capable of understanding the reality, even when it steps on their dreams.
Don't feel obligated to respond to this post, as we certainly wouldn't want to limit your evangelical mission by using up your daily allotment of posts.
regards,
frog
