Dear Christoph and Gregory,

Hi David,

First of all, I want to let you know that cutting out your reply is due to two 
reasons: One, your message wasn't in plain text, which, I think, is still a 
standard for Open Source mailing lists (correct me if I am wrong). Second: You 
don't actually expect a rational discussion on the issues you raised, do you? 

I refuse to discuss this issue with you, because it would yield the same result 
as discussing the weaknesses of Psychoanalysis or Creationism with their 
respective supporters. It's futile, because critical questions only reinforce 
their dogmas.

If you, as a "white priviledged male", have undergone some training in formal 
logic, you should also be able to see where youre trail of reasoning went 
off-rails (hint: at the very beginning).

Getting back to LGM and a CoC: If your fundamentalist perception of society as 
a whole, your prejudices, your false assumptions, your dogmas and LGM in 
particular have any chance to become a foundation of an event, I suggest 
removing "Libre" and replace it with "Righteous" (RGM), because nothing of the 
original "Libre" will be left.


Christoph
