Sigh...now who's being antagonistic?

You've said that I'm highlighting one person's message. That person is the person who posted the first post, the creator of this thread.

We are all responding to this first post in this person's thread. I didn't respond to the other people in this thread in MY initial post, I responded to the thread creator's first post. Like. You're. Supposed. To.

If you don't agree with my opinions, no big deal, to each their own. However, implying that I'm responding incorrectly or off-topic. That, in itself, is incorrect.

Also, by telling me to "Keep putting (my) head in the sand.", it is YOU who is exhibiting provocative behaviour. And calling me a "fool" without clarifying your point of view? Surely you're just becoming rude.

It would seem that all that would warrant an "intelligent proposition" in your eyes, is an opinion congruent to your own. But let us continue this no further. I accept your point of view. Heck, I ATTEND a private school, but, my opinion is different, and as long as you can maintain the same respect that I have shown for you, without attacking or crying unfairness, I will leave it at that.

EDIT: I guess my wish for a true, unbiased appraisal of ideas and opinions and a battle of wits in a debating-like situation was merely an illusion of grandeur in the World Wide Web. How sad it is, that people simply do not listen. But merely scream.
