You keep saying 'leaping' analogy but fail to give any arguments on why you
think it leaping. Just stating something is wrong without any arguments is IMHO
not a reasonable way to carry on a conversation. Whether my analogy is correct
or not, at least I gave my justification for it.

I never said you did. You said that posting something bigoted engendered more
bigotry. I said I didn't agree. Just posting something bigoted in an
authoratative tone doesn't mean a bunch of people will start nodding their
heads.

Well, it isn't about last words here you know. Not sure why that cropped up. My
beef is that you don't address the arguments at all with arguments of your own.
You merely repeat your stance. I also have repeated my stance, but have
presented arguments. I said that CTF isn't *filled* with bigotry, and clearly
stated my arguments for this. You have not addressed this at all. I also made an
analogy that you deemed 'leaping', which is perfectly well within your rights,
but refuse to give any arguments as to why. It is as if I said what you were
saying was absurd, but never said why, merely that is was absurd. That IMHO is
what constitutes an unreasonable way to carry a conversation. Just my 2 cents.
Peace.
