Thanks for reading past sentence one before writing me off. I don't have any remote problem with anyone who holds the moral facts stance. I personally don't agree with it, but I won't insult someone simply for having different thoughts than me.

However, it does irritate me when writers for high profile publications post awful arguments, and everyone hails them as a genius without stopping to think 'Maybe this person isn't infallible.' It's frustrating to watch people lose their critical thinking abilities when they read something that looks official.

Don't sweat it. We just do our best to avoid that kind discourse. We don't always succeed, but we try. Also when we do, there's usually some evolved common understanding between much of the community and the user.

Welcome to Hubski.

Haha, that's a helluva welcome. Is this standard initiation, or did I just get special treatment?

Compared to some, you got off easy. :)

Honestly, this place is full of good folk, and I include rrrrr amongst them.

Glad to hear it. This seems like a good community, I'm glad I found it.

It's not official until a dude who's name rhymes with "WhinePoo" gives you the business.

As a side-note, it's been fun coming up with different variations on the name, hehehe

Oh god... strange guys giving me the business never ended well.

Am I allowed to bring KY Jelly?

The ref was really getting into it lmao. If he did it for any longer he would be smacking the grass.
