Hey Pedro,
BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA
Frankness is good. Unlike thin skinned people who like it said with pretty
please
with sugar on top. Your ideas of democracy and western civilization are
blurred.
Maybe its the view of living on that little island. Another comment
you stated about Monasterys. You obviously cannot see how beautiful a life
they live. A life not of a prison but of the highest freedom. Something you
and i
will never realize.
I will no longer comment in public on this matter but ed tanton responded
rightly and you attacked him quite frankly with low level of tolerance and
your distorted ideas of western culture. Perhaps you should join a western
civilization reflector? Who knows, maybe you would become as famous as
Karl Marx..
Through with this topic.
