**Lib** for the last time. I don’t give a shit what you personally think of the talk.athiesm group nor their assertions. Your first post in this thread was to tell US that WE shouldn’t give weight to their assertions. You have repeated that statement. I have refuted that statement. Now you’re pretending I’m telling you what your personal judgement of the assertion from talk.athiesm should be. Quite frankly that’s bullshit and a strawman. I don’t give a shit what you accept as a world authority or not. Just don’t project your own personal prejudices onto other people as you did when you argued that evidence from talk.athiesm shouldn’t carry any weight as an indictment against **lekatt**. As for my participation in this thread, I see it as a defense of my intellectual honesty. I posted a cite I feel was relevant and fair. The only criticism of that cite has come from you and has stemmed, not from any real disagreement with any facts, but from your own distaste for the group who made the assertion. If you’re going to challenge my evidence, then please do so. If you are going to project your own prejudices onto the rest of the group and tell us that should we ignore the opinions of groups you despise then you can just fuck right off. I don’t need a nanny. Enjoy, Steven ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Hamlet \* > \*\*Actually, I’d say lekatt is more like Sam’s Club, only because he/she deals in ignorance in bulk. \*\* True, but if you buy a clock radio at Sam’s, chances are it will break in a week. **Lekatt’s** ignorance, on the other hand, isn’t some cheap foreign knockoff. No siree, it’s _quality_ ignorance. Other, lesser brands of ignorance will quickly be destroyed with even the faintest touch from a verifiable facts. But you can pick up a couple of crates of **lekatt’s** , bring it home, bash it with the sledge hammer of knowledge for a few days, and it remains completely undamaged. They oughta make black boxes out of the stuff. ---
