Re: Why ????

>>Why? What's wrong with trying to set the record straight? How can you compare lyers and cheats to people who are trying to put us back on the road to rational thought? Pardon me but this statement from you seems to undermine your whole credibility, particularly as it's only natural to define you as one of these "missionary types". No?<<

With respect, the answer is indeed "No." The Mencken quote someone posted sums it up pretty well, IMO. But you're right in one respect: I don't lump together, or didn't intend to, the liars and cheats with the honest folks. My "mission"--and in this sense I guess the label missionary fits--is merely to speak the truth as I see it. I'm not really out to convert anybody, which to me is an important distinction. I'm aiming to set the record--not other people--straight. I said my piece in the magazine over a year ago, as well as I could. Ever since I've just been trying to defend what I wrote--which is probably a mistake, one that I intend not to continue to make.

Best,
Jim
