I should probably let dead dogs and horses lie, however, you have also
publicly insulted me, and repeated that insult without any provocation from
me so, I'm going to respond.
Lets for reference look at what I said here:

I am not asking for any sort of punishment, or trying to get you to shut up
or anything (in fact, if you understood my beliefs at all, you would realize
that that would be very much against my beliefs). What I did was mention
that I also happened to be offended by the language, and asked for
CLARIFICATION as to what the T&C meant. I'm sorry if you read me as "crying
to mommy to get you to shut up", but that was not my intent. My intent was
to ask Todd to look at the language being used, and clarify for us if that
was out of the bounds set by the T&C (which we are obligated to follow since
this is a private place). In fact, in another post, I even clarified my
feelings and pointed out that while I am both offended by the language
(which you are continuing to use) and your message, I can ask that you
follow the T&C and refrain from offensive language. I can not ask you to
refrain from offensive opinions.
Perhaps why I am responding here is that you are attacking me at the very
core of my personal beliefs.
Frankly, I'm a little miffed at the way Todd wrote off my "interpreting
myself in" because your "hypothetical" case clearly mirrored the current
situation, and because of my core beliefs, I find myself no different to
Larry (who you did seem to more directly insult), and therefore equally a
target of your insult.
