You missed the point, dimwit. It's not that the insult was funny, it's that it was, like so many of your insults and accusations, a projection of your own flaws onto someone else, in this case your abysmal ignorance of metaphysics. I suspect everyone recognized that but you.

Actually, the "fire hydrant" analogy is a perfect one for Barry's near-total ignorance of metaphyics. (As well as of Robin.) Discussions of God and theology make Barry very nervous; that's why he's especially irritable and gratuitously nasty this morning. But what do you think of the metaphysical arguments for the existence of god as opposed to more materialistic approaches? Try to remember who you're talking to, Salyavin. This is a person who actually believed Robin Carlsen was bright and charismatic and worth following as a spiritual teacher. Your question is like asking a fire hydrant to explain physics. :-)
