Wheeeeeoooooooooo. I guess I must have pushed your button.
I didn't put down anyone's religious beliefs. I simply commented on the
"I'll believe what I want to believe, and I'm perfectly happy to let her
believe what she wants to believe- the only thing there that's my business
is my beliefs, and the money I can possibly make from the commission..."
statement.
If you really meant that you were in agreement with the item and its
intended use, you should have said so.
I wouldn't have had anything to say about that.
By the way I was simply making a play on your "Saint Phlip" signature. I
never questioned your beliefs or even assumed I knew what they were.
