So....paying some particular attention to the board the other day...it struck me that the UFO controversy is beginning to parallel religious controversy. Dozens of different beliefs..ideas and scriptures...all becoming very personal and real to the person who holds them to be THE TRUTH. There is little of science left because frankly scientists don't want a thing to do with the subject...until some alien walks out of THEIR closet.
Not a thing wrong with this EXCEPT...as with religion...passion on any subject can breed dissent....each person fervently hanging onto their little kernel of faith. Who here...is more 'wise' than anyone else here when it comes to this subject? I would sure rather NOT hear insults aimed at anyone else in here or their belief. Healthy debate is cool....but when it turns...it's not fun any more and to remember...one person can't effectively have an argument.

HE WAS DISRESPECTFUL TO ME... and i won't put up with it... he'll be back after the 13th...

Um....I didn't have a clue that Posey had been suspended Auntie. But as long as we're on the subject..I thought you were both pushing the line with one another...poking and prodding. Either of you could have backed down. You evidently figured you were justified in 'suspending' him..but the rest of us can't do that should we feel insulted. I am not saying he was not insulting and I don't think he was acting properly but...it still takes two. Now mind you...this is just my opinion.

Now mind you...this is just my opinion. that is your opinion jo and i disagree with it... i wasn't pushing the line, nor was i insulting... maybe you need to reread all the posts... and if you ever feel 'insulted' jo by anyones posts, your best course of action would be to let me know...
