However, I can't help but feel angry by your dismissal of my beliefs and misrepresentation of my words. It's a flaw, I know that. But even if you are of stone, maybe you should remember that it's actual people you are conversing with who have emotions and might feel strongly about things. And really, really dislike being made out to have said things they didn't. Twist your words whicheveryway you want (is that one word?), but from context, it was completely obvious I never attacked your "real impact" statement, but attacked your "so hypothetical statement"; the former was simply a mode of expression that is not at all uncommon and certainly not something to be lambasted for. I can't believe I'm still replying. Another flaw, I know. I should be the bigger man here. But I'm past the point where I still can. So I diminish myself to the level you are currently conversing at. I really hope I can find the strength to simply ignore your next dismissal of my heartfelt words and funnily meant comments like "hot-button issue". You, sir, really like to take the piss. Again, remember, real human being here, one who is currently having a bit of a problem with repeating "This guy is not one of my friends, what do you care" to himself. Peter. PS: Wow, really throwing myself wide open here emotionally. An asshole would probably abuse that.
