Now now, that’s emotion without logical thought.  To my way of thinking, that’s no way to have a truly substantive discussion.  Do you realize that by saying what you did, you’re condemming me right along with them?  I ask you, what have I ever done to you to deserve that?  I don’t even know you nor you me.  All you know about me is what I say here.  I wonder if perhaps we might step back from the raw emotion and have a logical reasonable exchange of thought?  Messages such as the one just below help not at all.
