I'd go with mistake or concentration over deception, because there's no real win with the last one. You're not going to move or embarrass someone to the hard right, they'll just dismiss you as a RINO and move on. That's almost as common around here as someone declaring another out of the Body by virtue of their own internal litmus.

I'm not saying it's beyond the realm of possibility that someone would take a part to taint the opposing party, or a faith, to broaden, only that it would seem questionable and exceptional and if I were inclined to think it I'd go over my own bias first with a fine toothed comb.

can anyone say this in their own words?

please try

You're definitely in the running for the "Here There Be Weasel" award, when I get around to handing out mine. You should stop low gossip about people if you're going to get up on that cross you drag around to show people your nose hair. :plain:

Wow, what a name caller. I got down so low since I talked to you last. Isn't lawyer professional? My two children are professional and they are not name callers. They will get in trouble if they do.

You are supposed to go up not down, friend.

Being called "sophiscated" get you so offensive?

I don't think "sophiscated" is insulting. Why is it insulting?



I don't get it. Why are you guys so uptight?



Oh, never mind.... I thought the award was for some other word. I need new glasses, I think lol


Posted from the TOL App cause that's how I roll.

I think this thread is light hearted. Why some of you are so angry? so much so that they even call nasty names.

sheesh.

He said sophist - not sophisticated.

sophist - a person who reasons with clever but false arguments.

Do you still think that is not insulting?
