Horse, that is not the case, that i deny the opinions of others. My point of view is changing as a result of this forum as I hope everyone's is. Can you honestly say that you have the same point of view you had last year? This forum is about growth and not sticking with old opinions, that is why we discuss things.
I see no resin why you insist in putting down my opinion if it does not agree with yours; you seem to be the intolerant one. Show me one post where I have said "you have a problem, Horse". All this negative rhetoric comes from you. It is not constructive. Very rarely do I see an opinion from you that is not just taking sides or admonishing someone because they posted something you don't like. I see no signs of you being tolerant, unless you are normally a very intolerant person. Think about it! So here I say, Horse, you've got a big problem. What are you going to do, banish me to protect your ego? If I see agreement, I will call it that. What is wrong with agreeing anyway. Are we not allowed to agree? Your "realism" is somewhat macabre. When a member says "hear, hear..." and I agree with him are we not in agreement? Why must you be so combative? Please show me where I am insulting any more than you are. You treat Marsha like shit sometimes. You may be projecting your own hostility on to me. Please provide examples. How can I provide examples of agreement if I do not get a response. What is wrong with my thinking that there is agreement. Is that not allowed in this forum? Please indulge me with an explanation.
