Subject: Re: [BOU:] End of anti-Semitic list: My remark misunderstood


We-- at least I-- haven't misunderstood you at all. I
stated in a previous post that you didn't have
position, and that if you did, you were either
unwilling or incapable of defending it. Your post now
only lends further validity to my prior assertion.
  As to your stated "beliefs about human nature," I
don't believe there even *is* such as thing as "human
nature." Can you prove to me that there is? And as to
your assertion about "everybody popping up," I haven't
seen anyone "pop up" where I am at all. Thus, I have
no idea what you are talking about, and rather suspect
that you don't either. 
    Ms. Salzberg, do us all a favor: sign up for some
basic humanities and English composition courses at
your local community college and begin educating
yourself; furthermore, please stop setting off your
little verbal stink bombs. That's really all your
posts have been. Learn to write cogent, half way
intelligent arguments, and people may begin to take
you seriously.
