I predict it will remain that way, as long as Middius and
his clique try to dominate here.

All you would need to do is give people a little room to
breathe.

I can see from all of your "Arny Bad Scientist" posts what
you consider breathing space, Robert.

Robert, your world view is obviously highly asymmetric, with
you as king and me as your servant.

Tain't so.

Live with it!

With a long running dispute, it sometimes is unclear, or irrelevant, what or
who the incitement is.
But I'm not the guy with the problem. I don't believe that anybody is trying
to "destroy"me.
By your statements,

you apparently do.
There's a saying that if you want to give it, you have to learn to take it.
This means that animosity will frequently be returned in kind, or worse. If
you give these people insult, they will reply with means that make you think
they want to "destroy" you.
If you want to be treated in a manner that does not imply your fear that
people are trying to "destroy" you, then someone has to turn down the
volume. Don't assume the other guy is going to do that first. One of the
great messages of your Christian church is exactly that; by "turning the
other cheek", it practically means that the other person will perceive less
external motivation to continue the attack. Like most Christians, you chose
to pervert or ignore Christ's message.

As a nonbeliever, I am not obligated to follow Christ's dictums. But I can
tell you, as a practical matter, that I bait you only because I believe you
deserve it. You are the most intellectually dishonest person I have ever
met, and you expect people to kiss your ass for it. No way, Jose. And my aim
is not to destroy you, but only in the hope that you'll tone down a bit, and
respect the value of pluralism.

I understand you acquitted yourself quite well in the Debate. Apparently,
you manifested a cordiality that is not seen here. Google does not lie, and
this:

is proof that you have a paranoid personality disorder.

The "ABX" scheme has intrinsic value, but why you have polluted it with your
personal need to dominate by dictating the "truth according to Arny" is
beyond me.

I dare you to follow, for a mere three weeks, Christ's dictum of "turn the
other cheek." I dare you, and I hope you prove me wrong.
