>From my perspective, a lot of the rancor appears to be a function of the True Non-Believers' difficulty dealing with anybody who is neither a TB nor a TNB but somewhere in between. TBs can just be dismissed, but a mixture of views on MMY and the TMO, some positive and some negative, in the same individual is perplexing. The TNBs, in my observation, tend to react to anybody who makes a positive statement by attempting to force them into the TB camp so they can be dismissed. It's only natural for the in-betweeners to be annoyed by that tactic when it misrepresents their views. Three of the most vocal of the in-betweeners--myself, Lawson (Sparaig), and Shemp--did come from alt.m.t, so perhaps that's part of the reason why the rancor seems to have increased since we got here. ------------------------ Yahoo!
