It's relevant. Everybody can see it is relevant. And it is easy enough to figure out why he didn't use the whole quote. You may be disappointed RS didn't use the entire paragraph and left out the portion that is controversial, but would the inclusion of that portion have changed anything RS said?

No offense to Kim Kommando - but the D d' A that Mizzie refers to probably would not have left out a verb and an adverb in one of his posts. Wasn't his major "English?" I know he has a Master's in Education.
... I think.

I apologize if that is true. That quote was among a couple other quotes along the side of the article.

Could it be... knowing that the following part of the quote:
Quote:
|
But while they live in both Greek and barbarian cities, as each one's lot was cast, and follow the local customs in dress and food and other aspects of life, at the same time they demonstrate the remarkable and admittedly unusual character of their own citizenship.
|
... probably won't get past the editor's desk, that RS cleverly found a way to at least include this statement in the discussion by making a reference to the ancient tome he cited?
By citing even a part of the work in question, RS left a trail of bread crumbs for the diligent reader that would lead inexorably to the "Letter to Diognetus?"
Full text of the "letter" can be found here: Letter to Diognetus
Thus, RS might really be said to have "begun a rebellion" against the 3 Stepper / ultra-con caitiff rule within the UP of C!

No apology needed. It's just one of those "Who Knows?" things.
Who knows? Maybe RS did do it... and did it on purpose for the reasons that I have invented in my post above?

Isn't RS the editor?

Correct and KK has more "inside" knowledge than D d' A would have access to.
