Ah, yes, the slack-jawed bible-banger has met his match. It seems half of his ravings stick out like a greasy puppy swirl on top of a white wedding cake. I would rather just ignore him. I had him in my plonk file then I had to reinstall my system and a few of his messages got through. His screeds are a mix of baseless accusations, off-point innuendoes, presumptions, assumptions, off-topic 'gotchas', creepy 700-club theology, regurgitated Roman Catholic superstitions, and holier-than-thou woo. He waffles off point into the weeds, erecting and attacking straw men and windmills, then huffing off in imagined triumph. He is the kind of tyrant that would be burning people at the stake if the laws allowed it, while feigning pity and compassion for the 'poor heretic.' Anyone who disagrees with the self-proclaimed experts on any point is "cursed" or "a devil" or "a false teacher", ad nauseum. It is a very thinly-veiled attempt to frighten others into conformity with their twisted notions. Every quoted bible verse is an 'incantation' to try bedazzling the target into compliance with his pretended authority. Civilization suffered under the power of his kind for centuries. Today they no longer have the power to put men to the sword and stake to satisfy their blood lust. So they try to bludgeon men into submission with horrific bible interpretation, snide comments, baseless accusations, and mock piety. He is so lacking in self-awareness he is oblivious to the fact that most people see right through him for what he is: a petulant, toddler dictator out of step with reality by about 600 years, just like the church. In my opinion the best thing to do is to answer woo with unbroken silence. Refusing to feed the need for confrontation is a fitting way to answer accusers and railers. If no one feeds his frenzy, he will probably go somewhere else looking for prey to harass. -- Nightbulb https://blog.nightbulb.net Flip the Night Switch.
