Quote:Sorry, my "let me make this clear" didn't make it clear, and again, my recollection of the aftermath of 9-11 from you was you, personally, being very supportive of your neighbor to the sourh, and of "them dudes is wrong."I'm really not clear, so maybe you're right. Did that post get edited between when I wrote my reply and now? Or am I just staying up too late and drinking to much Guinness?
If your assertion is that I do not believe in or support 'the modern world', or believe in its 'wrongness', or would somehow prefer Islamist fanatics to blow it up or take it over or something, then all I can say is you've misread some pretty gigantic aspects of my personal beliefs. I can't imagine anything I believe less than that proposition. I love the modern world. I love science and technology and the freedom to do as I please. I would rather live now than at any other point in history, and in the free world over any of the various dictatorships, fundamentalisms or oligarchies of the middle east.
What on earth would make you think otherwise?
