"The reason you owe the members of this community at least a modicum of respect is that you seem to want and expect them to read your comments."
Perhaps I'm being pedantic, but I don't "owe" anyone respect for that. I'd barter the pretense of respect for that if it were necessary, but apparently it isn't.
I retract and apologize for calling your ideas ignorant and bigoted. I do think you often attempt to cloak weak arguments with verbosity and academic airs, but as for bigotry, I was confusing you with someone else.
