another? With this wording I'm excluding violence that a person uses to defend
themselves or their loved ones. So again, what constitutes initiating violence

Barry has taken his anti-Robin jihad over to Facebook?? Unbelievable. He can't
get away with that here, because there are too many people who know the facts.
On Facebook, he can simply block anyone who knows what the real story is. What

Really, this is so revealing of Barry's integrity and character (or rather,
lack of same). It's impossible even to imagine Robin doing something like that

It's also brilliantly confirmatory of everything I've said here about how

I think he probably knew he had an out. And looks like he just got it.
I guess you could look at it both ways. But it would seem to me that he is
putting the onus on someone in this case.
I think it is a nice distinction Ann is making in either fighting for a cause,
or being willing to die, if something isn't changed in a manner you want to see
it changed.
Seraph, I don't think opinions themselves can be true or false though they can
be based on true or false conclusions. And I still think emotional blackmail is
an interaction that occurs on the personal rather than societal level.

Steve, what I had been admiring about the guy was his lack of violence against
others in the presence of his own strong opinions. Meaning, he isn't bombing
abortion clinics or flying airplanes into buildings or bullying gays online.
When most people fight for a cause, they harm other people.
But, the thing is, in his fight to protest and in turn his hope to have gay
marriages banned or made unlawful he is doing a kind of violence. The form his
violence is taking is to judge and ultimately condemn the validity and the
power of love and the desire to commit, in the form of marriage,
Now wait a second. What you are saying has nothing to do with whether he is
fasting or not, at least as I understand it. And forget for a moment his other
comments, as they seem to have no bearing on what you are saying above.
It seems that you are rendering a pretty harsh judgement simply
Simply not true that when most people fight for a cause, they harm other
people. When it does happen, it's the exception, not the rule, not by a very
long shot indeed. Most people in this country, at least, don't believe their
strong opinions give them the right to do violence to others.
