How did you deduce that from my post? Why are you constantly playing the persecuted victim card?

Try to take a breath and wipe the drool for your mouth between your fits of rage.

Forum etiquette is indeed under debate and yes Galveston is a prime offender (I haven't even mentioned his constant plagiarism) in failing to answer questions put to him. This is a debate forum and I say it is poor form to ignore polite questions, which all of mine were.

I am not in a fit of rage, in fact I am feeling rather mellow and no one is under duress to say a single word to you. You are not interested in debate, all you are interested in is humiliating people, thats why you cannot stand it when you are ignored, it deprives you from the chance of doing just that. What will you do, shine lights in people eyes, 've hav zee vays of making you talk'?

No I've never considered it, are you going to give me a personal psychotherapy session to determine if its the case?

ive all ready done that.

my question was to ask if you always blame your religion when people claim you are being obtuse. have you ever considered that your behavior, as highlighted a few pages back by fmf, when he posted several quotes by you suggesting that winning the argument is the most important thing rather than staying 'clean' is a sign that you are not the beacon of morality that you often portray yourself as. that maybe your motivations are not pure, that your defense of galveston is not one of friendship......but because you like to win arguments from impossible positions.

you have publicly stated that you loathe Jehovahs witnesses in fact all one needs to do is examine your attitude towards them and the threads that you start and it becomes self evident.

I will repeat this for the last time, i am not a victim, i don't know where you get the silly idea that you think I am, but i will tell you for there last time in the hope that it penetrates your skull, I am not a victim.

No I don't hate anyone, no I don't like to humiliate anyone.

How have I humiliated anyone here robbie? How have I bullied anyone robbie? How have I vilified anyone robbie?

Please be specific as these are quite serious claims you are naming against me.

I've never said anything such thing ever. If you can find a post of mine stating that I hate Jehovah's witnesses I will give you £1,000.

That's one way of looking at the situation in hand.

Another way of looking at it is you two, and specifically Galveston, ignore posters/posts you either cannot or don't want to reply to and leverage some peripheral factor as an excuse.

I will say this for the second time, no I have never considered it, in fact, I am a rather joyful, spirited and vivacious individual given to brief moments of pensive melancholy as all great artists are, its an occupational hazard I'm afraid.

Anyhow I need to go to sleep, I have a book on the family history of Abraham Lincoln that I must try to finish reading and I must bathe in the gentle radiance of my wifes eyes, goodnight and may Jehovah the father of the Celestial lights be with you all!

No he is not, infact under the banner of forum etiquette if he feels that someone is badgering, forcing and bullying him or uncomfortable answering any questions he has every right to desist. Infact its enshrined into law in some countries, its termed 'taking the fifth' in America and is a safeguard against self incrimination. What in fact is a breac ...[text shortened]... paragingly force contributors to do so using various guises is a real breach of forum etiquette.

I was having a look for the thread in which Galveston75 spat his dummy out and left a few years ago, only to return two days later of course. I found it, but I also stumbled upon some interesting quotes from Galveston in which he talks about RJHinds refusing to answer his questions in another thread. It seems what's good for the goose isn't good for the gander -

Does anyone else notice that when RJ is asked a couple honest questions ( on another thread ) about his beliefs and the reasoning behind them, and ones he has no answers for because he can't prove them from the Bible which he claims he gets his answers from, just as clock work he will always turn and attack like a snake and either attacks or starts the name calling? It's an expected responce but still very amusing when it happens and exposes his lack of spiritual knowledge.

and

I am not mocking and did not quote anything from the WTS but I'm asking you some simple questions that you didn't answer.
What you believe makes no sense at all and if it is indeed truth in the Bible, show me. A simple request is it not?

and

I know and so do a few others. I really try not to do that out of respect for his age. But I know I will get this kind of responce which shows he has no answer and has to respond in a way that he thinks deflects the subject.
If he does not know, then just say so and I'd respect that much more then these silly attacks he reverts too.

and

It's because silly man you didn't answer my post.

Here we have examples of Galevston75 chasing RJHinds for an answer across a couple of different threads. Why is it ok for Galveston75 to chase RJHinds for an answer, yet when the same is done to him we get accusations of bullying, vilification and calling in the moderators etc?

excuse me I don't know where I got that from, it must have been your warm hearted affection for them, how I could possibly misconstrue it, i cannot say. All that loving and affectionate criticism, so touching.

Nice work but don't expect much of a response.
