He was agreeing with you, rkzenrage, that the fact that the Economist is a British publication is not relevant.
I was not arguing with Bruce.

I didn't say you were. I just said that you and tw agree that being British doesn't make the Economist is not anti-American.

So, what does make it anti-American?
What was the point of you restating something that I stated?

tw only says that xoxoxoBruce now looks for reasons to attack; even attack The Economist - because tw reads it and quotes from it. Lately xoxoxoBruce has become so emotional as to liberally lace posts even with profanity. So when tw says, "The Economist is an anti-American publication", then it obvious is facetious of xoxoxoBruce's new attitude.

Meanwhile, one who is more interested in learning, grasping, preparing for the future, learning from history, etc would have ignored those details - stop acting like a scumbag lawyer or politician - and deal with the issues.

Point is that xoxoxoBruce now attacks only for personal reasons rather than deal logically with the issues.

Does xoxoxoBruce even remember the post that set him off on a tirade?
Quote:
Number of supporters for extremists religious leaders is growing - not diminishing. Nothing about geology, anthropology, etc was posted. Why are you jumping to such conclusions?

Darwin has nothing to do with religion. Why then do extremist religious leaders attack Darwinism when it does not affect and is irrelevant to religion? Because Darwin is not irrelevant when religion is to be imposed on all others. Islamic Fundamentalism or Christian extremists. Both share a common agenda. Impose religion on all others. That is an example of satanism. Why is that so difficult, Bruce?
Notice that xoxoxoBruce never even replies to those questions or addressed those issues. Instead xoxoxoBruce went off on a tirade that even included an attack on The Economist. tw simply posted the facetious summary of what xoxoxoBruce is posting. A more logical xoxoxoBruce would have move back to a post maybe 3 pages ago. He did not. He continues to agrue over a post that made fun of his new attitude.

xoxoxoBruce - there is the post before this all broke down into personal attacks. Can you reply to the issues and questions in that post - rather than attack the messenger? IOW can you move forward to things relevant rather than fall back into more tirades and personal attacks?

But tw forgets to tell you I did not attack the economist. He only thinks so because he reads with childish emotion instead of whats posted

A very calm and unemotional, fuck you, liar.

That sentence didn't even make sense but if you were being obviously facetious (by the way did you thank HM for the big word) then why didn't everyone realize that? Probably because of tw's irrational claims make him sound like such a wacko they don't know what to think anymore.

tw is so devoid of content he's now parroting what we've been telling him for years. At least tw has memorized what we've been telling him, if he could get a tutor to help him understand it he might start posting relevant facts.... instead of attacking me, even in response to other posters, and posts I didn't make. It must be the paranoia of not being able to understand the real world that makes tw lash out like a bad tempered child.

Case in point.

The poor baby is so confused he thinks I'm on a tirade. tw is obviously losing touch with reality, I'm sure that will lead to more wild accusations.

See, tw claims I never reply to questions. Now if that isn't the tallest pile of bullshit every made. From tw the champion of not answering legitimate questions. changing his position, lying about what he said, accusing everyone of being a moron because they couldn't understand his simple posts...god, what an asshat

Again tw thinks I attacked the magazine because he reads with childish emotion instead of what was posted. tw is really losing it now.

tw knows I can't go back three pages because that would just take me to waiting for tw to answer the simple questions I asked that he never answered...as usual.

I can't move anywhere until tw answers my questions in this and others threads, but I'm afraid he's so lost he will never figure that out. Post 19 is waiting on you liar.

Of course it answers the question. The question is xoxoxoBruce as characteristized by his denigrating the Economist. It was

What question are you looking at? Only question remaining is why xoxoxoBruce has become so antisocial complete with profanity. Profanity posted only when he cannot explain why he has these fits. Why does he now post insult and accusations without facts? He did this same thing when insisting global warming did not exist; but could not explain why.

tw then facetiouly said
"The Economist is anti-American because it is published by Brits." That post ignited an emotional and illogical Bruce. What is the topic? The new xoxoxoBruce - who today is back to posting more like the old Bruce - no profanity; just the facts.
