>>>That's an interesting observation. I think it is definitely an accurate description of me, but I don't see it as generally true of contributors to buddha-l. I wonder how many other buddha-hellions would think that description accurate of them.
 
===I see it as generally true of the "politically correct" way to post as buddha-l.  But I’ll be very glad to be wrong about this, especially since there are other things I enjoy about buddha-l. 
 
>>>Good heavens, you don't expect us to appeal for respect for every kind of irrational sloppy thinking in the world, do you?
 
===No, of course not.  I didn’t even have that in mind.  Beliefs and practices different from ours should be respected—such as the examples I provided in my post.
 
>>>There would probably be more tolerance and respect on buddha-l if we didn't have so many Republicans on the list.
 
===I’ll wager there aren’t that many—probably from zero to three on the entire list.  In fact, let’s take a poll!
