- Thereby demonstrating that not only did Reverend Doug attempt
- to misrepresent Susan's remarks with his strawman, but that he
- was unable to respond with anything approaching a reasonable
- answer to the matter in question.
-
- Nothing to do with threads evolving, and let's be honest...
- well, I'll be honest, you be Reverend Doug as usual. You
- weren't working on an evolution in the thread, you were
- attempting a response to the matter under discussion, which
- response was a failure.
-
- Do try and be an honest fool for a change, Reverend. Is motley
- the traditional choice of your church for ecclesiastical robes?
