As a long time supporter of the GoaNet initiative I have decided to go that extra mile and help the GoaNet Admin Team in their task by indulging in self censorship. Therefore I declare the thread "Spiralling Untruths and Whirling Dervishes" hereby closed as it has been conclusively proved that certain bombastic statements, regarding divorce and extra-marital sex in Goa, made by a certain regularly dramatic poster who often indulges in mere rhetoric, are completely without basis in fact.
-------------------------- New thread starts ----------------------------- Selma wrote: And that is the crux of the matter when one feels no obligation to prove anything but can just say that the statements made by other people are incorrect. Then the audacity to gloat that they've proved credibly their point. It's a bit like Goan politics. Do a Hindifilmi dance, obscure the topic, make wild allegations against opponents, muddy the intent and voila, you have won the argument. Cecil: I venture to state that Selma knows precious little about Goan politics and as usual is soapboxing. I will change my opinion if Selma is able to give three examples of incidents in contemporary Goan politics which meet all her criteria: - Hindifilmi dance - Obscuring of topic - Wild allegations against opponents - Muddying if intent - Winning of argument Please mention specific names and dates and details of incidents. Before I be accused of nitpicking I would just like to state that as part of my new initiative of voluntarily co-operating with the GoaNet Admin I would like to see postings that are more factual and less grandiloquent. Have a nice weekend. Cheers! Cecil ========== -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
