Is it the way I talk that causes you to have a problem understanding me? I didn't apologize in that quote ... I did the exact opposite and explained why I felt justified in not apologizing.
As for my negative, offensive, threatened, berating attitude (whatever you choose to label it) ... oh well. I have a serious problem with people who attempt to sound intelligent and well informed on an internet website and then miss the most obvious correlations (or complete lack of) between my views and their arguments against said views. If you took the time to read my older posts, you might be pleasantly surprised that I got irritated and frustrated with an individual that continually argued against documented AIDs and HIV percentages in America and the growth rate of those percentages. Even after being shown proof (direct links), she continued to argue.
If you are wondering how I could remember way back then without looking back to see (I assure you ... I didn't), it is because it is a very sensitive subject to me and her attitude and our subsequent arguments were so out of the ordinary that I still remember it.
As for our little debate (yours and mine), you continue to take a tiny piece of the pie, taste it, and then tell me how great the entire meal was when you ate nothing more than the bite of pie. Then you wonder why I get agitated and confrontational ... ?
Funny. I've probably met more black preachers than most and I've never met a single one that could be considered as represented by Rev. Wright. As a matter of fact, I'd be willing to wager that I've met many that would be absolutely furious if even compared to him. Rev. Wright does not preach religion ... he preaches hate, he peddles hate, and he thrives on hate. Rev Wright is a hate monger and he uses racism as his platform ... He ranks right up there with Al Sharpton as being a broker, provoker, and beneficiary of racial hate.
I've never met the man. I've never sat through one of his sermons. I have, however, read a few of them and even caught glimpses of him at his finest. That was far more than enough ...
Where did I say that America had good moral standing? Where did I say that? I'll help you out on this one: I didn't.
So because school is mandatory, we should not balk at anything that the government decides to make mandatory ... as long as it has something that could be considered positive associated with it?
Brilliant! So you won't mind being forced (read: mandatory) to join the military (everyone must serve) and being sent to Afghanistan? It has a good associated with it: it would teach people how to work together and get along and maybe even offer them an alternative career path!
You make no sense whatsoever. You claim that because one thing has an associated positive attached ... then everything that has an associated positive attached must also be good. Wow.
