@classified,I said these are campfire stories
not that I believe in them,your use of the word in this instance is off and you know it,again,please do not insult my intellegance.

Well if thats how you choose to see it thats fine. Its certainly your right. However I feel that while "searching", and digging for truth is always a good idea, it can also , through a prolonged period, lead to an overall over-analization of said topic. Which, imo, leads to mistakes and at times an incorrect understanding. Just maybe a man feels he has a certain amount of wisdom on a subject because he HAS come to a deeper understanding sir.

I dont know what you mean by the second part of your responce. Clearly you have taken what I said as an attack on your P.O.V. ...as it was intended... because it was you who basically stated that haveing a set of beliefs is foolish. This to me is foolishness friend. Because I do have those I am..."on a highhorse"? Or is it because I touched a nerve? Be carefull so as to not place various words in my mouth. The truth has been known to sting from time to time brother. From what Ive read (everything youve said here that is) , imo, your veiwpoint is narrow-minded , and unadaptable sir. Thats just my opinion. Its not meant to be an attack on your character by any means. Im sure your a fine fellow. You simply have a way of seeing things that I tend to disagree with entirely. Personal preference. Feel totally free to say the same of myself without fear of offence (now whether or not that accusation would hold any weight as I feel mine does is another matter lol). In short: You think Im wrong. I think your wrong. In my opinion Ive proven this. In your eyes youve proven your POV. Whether or not I feel its a foolish one is inconsequential. It shouldnt keep you up at night sir. lol...it wont me reguardless of what you think of my statements.
