CC1 - You hit this one on the HEAD!

I already quoted the dictionary....he called me a legalist for doing so. This person is obviously anti-intellectual...in fact being intelligent is really something that gets in the way of guys like this.
It's so much easier to defeat ideas when all you have to do is make up definition of words. It's sort of like a strawman argument where someone twists what the other person says and then attacks it, because what the other person originally said was just to challenging to even read let alone bother refuting

And you rks are being judgemental and don't get it.....

You rks do not have a clue......

By the way....rks offered no definition here but an observation ........

You don't even realize that you used a word and MIS-USED it. It's clear you either had no idea what the word really meant OR you were equivocating...either way that's not a good thing

Thats fine Elder and Amish live a strict isolated life too.

Nothing wrong with your life style or the Amish.

But when it is indoctrinated as Gods commandments and those that do not adhere to these doctrines of Isolation are back sliders, well it's ludicrous.

I like go roughing it camping sometimes, but I do come back to civilization.

It seems that the elders and founders of the past loved the Mountain top experience so much they never came back down to were life happens.

They have stayed up on the mountain top for so long they died for lack of oxygen.

This tradition is passed down the line.

Crab apples are bitter. I am the taster, UPC is the crab apple.

Not my fault.
