Wait a second. Lemme clear somethin’ up for ya. Rainy days said that TLK doesn’t think much. Philosophy said that TLK thinks more because he isn’t chained by dogma. So, she is implying that one who believes in a religion doesn’t think as much or as openly. I merely asked Philosophy whether she believes those who don’t follow a religious dogma are mentally unchained…when one could still be chained/influenced/limited by societal laws, upbringing, etc. You have misread my post and maybe felt the need to defend Phil when I wasn’t even attacking her.

RV. Now I need to clear something up for you. You and I at times have diammetrically opposite views on issues - mostly related to religion and its role in the public ( as opposed to private) sphere. Personally I like you as a GS poster. Very respectful. Honest. Passionate in what u believe in. No personal attacks. And respecting all faiths.

I have NEVER replied to ANY of ur posts with the intentvto defend another person. When I read ur list, from my POV, the disagreement I had with some of the points u made stood out. And I simply responded.

There really was no ulterior motive such as coming to anyones defense - least of all philosophyyyy, who is never at a loss for words!

So for future reference, know that if I reply to ur post, it is ONLY abt ur posts contents.
