TGF is a free and open secular public forum. You may be mistaking it for some other forum or network. And of course, I hope the arsonist thought is taken in jest by others, as intended. As I have stated before on countless occasions, nobody's perspective, however extreme and disagreeable to someone, ought to be blocked from a free and secular public forum such as Goanet. However, the rules of Goanet have to be strictly enforced by the Goanet administrators. Otherwise, they might as well rescind them. Why waste electrons? Frederick's excuses and rationalizations simply don't wash. I, Santosh Helekar, must be banned from Goanet if the administrators determine that my e-glow of pure evil or some other infraction violates the Goanet rules. But I think that they should grant a special exemption from the rules to Goveia, and give him unlimited chances to refute your arguments, and those of Selma, Francis, Sunith, Roland, Albert and Kevin, which he has failed to do so far. You have already realized that your arguments are impenetrable as long as one follows the direct and honest, rational approach. Regarding your arguments not being worm-out proof, let me submit to you that anybody can worm out of an argument or demean and demonize its proponent. But most people do not resort to such evasive and abusive tactics out of fairness and respect. An argument which is countered only with such an illicit approach stands unrefuted. Nasci has not violated the Goanet rules so far, so he should not be banned. He has simply vented his righteous prejudices in an enlightened sort of way. I think he cannot help doing that because he is one of those rare individuals (but perhaps, fortunately, more abundant on Goanet) who are endowed with the e-glow of enlightenment. I am pleasantly surprised to note that we share an alma mater. I must say, indeed, we are the children of a lesser goddess.
