In your first post of this thread you find a need to admonish accyweb and it's members:-

It is easy to make cheap , shallow jibes at the expense of those who have deeply-held beliefs and outlooks on life different from one's own.


It appears to be not so easy to provide an in-depth explanation of one's own conclusions of what Reality is to back up the snide sneering.

May I suggest that those who wish to make such criticisms do so with some element of wisdom which gives expression to their views.

As I pointed out in this post in another thread:-


http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/816308-post2.html

Which Horse's mouth can you get to confirm the above to be true and prove it's not just rumour & speculation on your part?

It's not up to us to go searching, you, accuse accyweb members of being full of Bigotry, you, should at least put in the effort to prove that you aren't just stirring a dark brown soup with a wooden spoon.

Oh and by the way if you actually do find and prove these things, I will repeat a suggestion put to you earlier,

If you don't like what we do or represent then leave, we won't miss you, honest.

Greetings Dave , The continuous changes in direction are caused by the continuous changes in direction of the questions I am being asked.I try to answer the questions I am asked , but they are of such a varied nature, so I can understand your confusion.

The questions and comments I receive are , on the whole , not related to the initial comments I made when I started this thread.However , if you read the questions and comments I have received , you ought to realise that my initial comments were well-founded.
You will find a high level of intolerance , cheap jibes , accusations made without evidence to back them up , sneering at practices different from one's own etc. etc.
Many of the opinions sent to me are argumentum ad hominem , which is often an excuse to cause diversion because the opinions are held without any facts to validate them.
One sad person on Accy Web appears to take pride in being a bigot and intolerant.
As I have said before Accy Web has the potential to be a good source for local knowledge , reasoned debate and respectful discussion.Include also the banter and jokes , but any good comedian will get you to laugh with , not at others.
Unfortunately Accy Web is largely made up of a clique which lives in its own little world , with its own little minds and its own little knowledge of logic , the English language , the real world's vastness of ideas and questionings which give spice to life.Remain there if you wish , cossetted in your pathetic smugness , or open up.Be welcoming.Encourage those to participate though you may not share their outlook on life.Be magnanimous and you will grow richer in wisdom and tolerance.
Note that in the above paragraph I wrote "largely made up of".There are those on this web who do display that they have intelligence and large-heartedness.Hoping not to embarass him , I refer you to Graham Jones' letter in last week's Observer , as an example of this positive and generous attitude I desire to see more of.
So come on Accy Web members.Get real.Lets make something great out of this enterprise.
Meanwhile I shall remain strong in my Christian Faith.I shall not be ashamed to be called a Socialist.I shall be pleased to remain an Accringtonian because my roots are here , though I mourn for its sad decline over the past few decades.I pray that I shall be around for a few more years yet.

JCB is you that needs to get real, yer calling folk you have no idea about, only your deluded reasonings from the net, you really are a sad individual.

[garinda]

Goodbye.

Your arrogance really knows no bounds, does it? You've been on here five minutes and you're already giving us pep-talks like some sort of commander-in-chief.

Bog off, Godbotherer.

[emamum]

i'm not reading through the whole thread... are we supposed to believe what he believes or let everyone believe what they want to without arguing or making fun of them?
