Roger,
I never enjoyed those arguments. I didn't enjoy it when you argued back and I
doubt that anyone else except you enjoyed it. That was what I kept saying. It
is you who want to beat him in an argument. No one else cares. People may not
like his posts, but no one likes watching people fight on an email list. Well,
maybe some people do, the same kind of people who enjoy the fights that go on,
on Twitter. But what people are doing on Twitter, is showing off, trying to get
the better of each other, trying to show who's smarter. I think they're all
acting like narsissistic children.

Well, Miriam, I don't respond to him anymore. I just send his messages to the
spam folder and delete them from there. But, yes, it is tempting to respond. If
he is looking for an argument I think I have proven that I can give it to him
and trounce him in the process. That can be fun.
And, yes, it is a lot of fun to humiliate a bully. It is fun to give a bully
back what he dishes out and watch how he can't take what he dishes out. I am
not doing it now because I am getting his messages from a personal mailing
list. When I respond I am sending messages to everyone on that list who are
already demanding that they be taken off of it anyway. If I did that I would be
doing the same thing to them that he is doing. I suppose I could check the
address fields and be sure that the message was going to him and him alone, but
that kind of takes the fun out of it.

Emmett F. Fields “ Atheism is more than just the knowledge that gods do not
exist, and that religion is either a mistake or a fraud. Atheism is an
attitude, a frame of mind that looks at the world objectively, fearlessly,
always trying to understand all things as a part of nature.

people into arguments or sometimes, just to taunt.

Subject: [blind-democracy] Those unwanted emails
Maybe I have an answer to those unwanted email messages. Especially the
latest ones from "James Madison". Of course James Madison turns out to be
our old pest, Mostaafa. After responding to one of James(Mostafa)posts I
received a message from Google telling me that my email address had been
compromised. Then my email account was canceled. With the assistance of my
wife, we reestablished my google account, but it was a bit upsetting, since I
keep many files in Google. But the sneaky way Mostafa gets around posting
his unsolicited posts made me suspiscious that my reply and the Google post
that discontinued my email account were somehow related. Once again I will
resolve that, no matter how tempting, I will refrain from responding to
Mostafa, no matter what name he uses.
