i.e in Ravspeak = Steve, a pea brained heartland retard. My rakshasaa, metaphorical demon of ignorance. You have to admit, he is one lucky sonofabitch, lot of good karma he has, that he attracts so much attention from me. I still love him..LOL..

I hope he will take this judgment to heart, and not retreat into the same old, same old. Well done. Your prejudice, your blindness, your imperviousness is shocking, Steve. Are you even beyond the prayers of your "very devout Catholic" wife? I hope not. She must find you at times terribly mischievous and irritating. You have NEVER taken in the amount of reality and truth that would permit you to make the judgments you make. You are perversely selective in almost everything you say [except in telling us about your children]. There is no willingness to let realty have some play inside of you, to lead you, to inspire you in your responses. You will never travel into the unknown. You don't surround an issue with your heart and mind. You are looking always, in every instance, to feed your own predetermined point of view. It is an outrage. It is a tragedy. I feel deeply sorry for you, Steve. But evidently there is nothing you can do about this. Your niceness is poisoned at its tip. Of course you don't know anything about all this I am telling you, but this does not in any way make it less true. But there is no telling you anything, Steve, and you have already got your mind in working order to make some response to this which will miss entirely the impact of what I have said. You won't let anything hit you, Steve. You are innocently conning yourself out of grappling with the issues here honestly and existentially. You are ant-existential ini your approach: intellectually and morally. This has nothing to with my view of anyone you have discussed by the way. I am notit is hard even to find myself telling you thisattempting to respond to you out of our differences of point of view. I accept your point of view *in principle*. But what I find so disappointing and killing to the soul is your strange personal methodology of examining the character of another person. Your experience is so fixed and unchangeable that it will not tolerate the notion of *discovery*, of experimental knowledge. Everything you read at FFL is only read from the perspective of the extent to which it reinforces your prior determinative way of seeing someone. Steve, I am sorry, but you don't get a passing grade at all. Do you want to get into all this? It's not worth itnot for me, not for you.
