But you should do. I would be the last person to stop you expressing 
your views on what is written; that is your free choice and right.

But you have no right to foist your views on people willy-nilly. 
To "foist" is to "impose an unwelcome thing or person on" and if you 
try to start imposing your will and interpretations on others and 
expecting them to fall into line, you are overstepping the mark of 
what is your free choice and right at the expense of others.

Geoff:
Again, that is your choice. How other people view that statement 
is /their/ right. And if their interpretation of your pomposity leads 
them to see you as being fractiously unwilling or unable to consider 
any other point of view -whether you consider it right in the end or 
not - so be it.

 
Now Tammy says:
I've already set my email program to automatically delete ANYTHING that
comes through the list from Lupinlore.  I feel no need to continue being
bombarded by his ridiculous, admittedly and unapologetically pompous,
self-righteous obsessions, especially when he refuses to even acknowledge
that there might possibly be some point of view beyond his own. 
 
I pity you, Lupinlore, in a way, but not enough to bother reading anything
else you might ever have to say from now on, on any topic, whatsoever.  And
that is *MY* choice in how to respond to your attitude.
