If anyone has enough of a problem with you to plonk you, they've solved
whatever problem they have with you.
Me, I think it's not necessarily a bad thing for someone to make me
uncomfortable if by their posts they challenge my beliefs. Either
they'll cause me to reexamine things and my position will shift, or I'll
reexamine things and decide that where I am is where I want to be.
And the biggest argument I've seen you in, it looked to me like someone
was projecting something onto it that wasn't actually there in the text,
and *that* is more intolerant in its own way than anything I've read
from you recently.
