[/quote] Nice editing sport. You really do need to show more respect to those who are older and wiser. And you have yet to provide a definition of who my enemy is. Because right now according to what you have written, your defintion is far broader than Mother Church Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I can justifiably argue that this is not a sinful act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I think Rexi gets annoyed by people pulling the age card on him constantly. He knows more Catholic stuff than about anyone here and is only 16 and that seems to annoy some older users. When they can't match him in calm theological debate they pull the age card. Somehow, because they've been alive longer than him, they know more and their theological arguments automatically carry more weight. Here is Rexi's situation, represented pictorially.

I saw people getting snippy in the course of an argument and that's about it. The closest thing to rudeness that I have seen here was Rexi's response to your pulling the age card on him. I'm not getting into the particulars of the argument you two are having, but responding to Selah, I can see why Rexi would get annoyed at people here continually using their age to trump his arguments. I didn't say Rexi knew more than you. He does know more than a lot of people here and if you do know more than him I can say that I doubt that it's big divide. That's not to say that you don't know a lot about this. Just that Rexi knows an unusually large amount for his age. Some people here seem to be intimidated by that and respond by going after his age. I'm not saying that is what you intended to do. But given the general pattern, I can understand why Rexi would not appreciate you rebuking him for not showing the proper deference that you feel is owed to you because you are older and, according to you, wiser.

Winchester Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Someone describing a struggle they have and the reasoning or feeling behind it is hardly a reason to poo in one's pants. Youthful exhuberance can cloud the meaning of a post. Like Shakespeare said: "Respect thine elders, beeshes." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
