I certainly don't intend to do such. In fact, I can't find where I did (other than in my latest hypo where it was clearly intro'd as such). I'd be happy for you to show me where I mis-quoted you and you will receive a prompt apology.

Quote from Turok:

Turok: "I believe 'A'".
JB3: "You're wrong -- "B" is clearly correct".
JB3: "and BTW, who the F*** made you the expert?"

Find the post that I said this ("who the F***"), and I'll apologize.

Your response is actually just another example of how you don't understand the problem -- my issue with you is one of logic and has nothing to do with subject matter (thus my "A" and "B" hypo in my last post). We could have been discussing the latest company report from YHOO and your response (if written the same) would have contained the same logical flaw/hypocrisy.

Oh well.

>1. Don't put words I didn't say in my quotes.

LOL -- if you saying that I see the conflict in my post -- well, you'd be throwing straw (and demonstrating your lack of reading comprehension). There was and remains no conflict in my original statement The conflict I refer to in my last post is YOURS. (the hypocrisy).

As an end to all this, Jem and I are pretty much mortal enemies on this forum (exaggeration of course), but I certainly understand why he is struggling with your thought process over on that other thread -- you like to zig and zag to cover your ass and you REALLY don't read what people write, but assume what you like.

You get the last word.

peace and moving on.

PS: Since I can't find it, if you don't respond with the post where I "put words you didn't say in your quotes" I will just assume you were "snarking".

You forced me to say it out plainly and just robbed all fun from this thread.

By "snark" I mean that my first post was intentionally contradictory. If you read other of my posts in other threads, then you surely would recognize that this post does not represent my views. I was merely extrapolating the quote in your post to an extreme to highlight its inconsistency. So yes, the conflict was in my post, which you recognized, but it was an extension of what you originally quoted, which you didn't.

I have no trouble reading others' posts, thank you very much. Jem certainly puts a lot of thoughts in his posts, that's what made the discussion with him so fun. But his understanding of science is very superficial. This is a free forum and I have no obligation to directly address every single post. James Bond is my hero, but not my real name so I don't have to worry about making James Bond look good either. If people don't understand my posts, it's their problem, not mine. The only reward I get from this forum is entertainment. I can care less what someone else wants from me.

BTW, not that I want to get the "last word." It just feels rude not to reply to your questions.

Oh C'mon JB3 -- now I KNOW you don't read well (or else your just playing the troll...I'm not sure which at this point). You know damn well you just SNIPPED OUT the part of that post which clearly demonstrates I DIDN'T MISQUOTE YOU.

Here is what you chose to snip:
>Turok: "I believe 'A'".
>JB3: "You're wrong -- "B" is clearly correct".
>JB3: "and BTW, who the F*** made you the expert?"


Here is what I actually wrote:
>Now talk about contradiction (or hypocrisy) JB3 -- those
>two statements have it in spades. In other words...
>
>Turok: "I believe 'A'".
>JB3: "You're wrong -- "B" is clearly correct".
>JB3: "and BTW, who the F*** made you the expert?"

See the "In other words..." ??? In case you don't know, that means that what follows is a hypothetical exchange using different words but with similar meaning.

No apology due and none given.

See Ya.

Quote from james_bond_3rd:[Talking to Turok]

Because you were quoting in an approving manner a fundamentalist point of view. Fundamentalism is harmful and needs to be fought everywhere you see them.


=======================
Thats, with all due respect, at best,very superficial,/innacurate to put Turok in the same ''fundamentalist'' box as fundamentalist fanatics who believe[live it]] its thier religious duty to kill Christians/Jews
