DMB,

Not sure why you felt I needed you to define hypocritical, but again,
you suggest I said something I didn't actually say ... you can say as
many unpleasant things as you like about things I do say, but please
don't make up things I didn't say.

To suggest I said without qualification "all actions are hypocritical"
is dishonest. I actually used (in the same sentence) the same
qualifications as you used in your definition - action & speech
relative to other speech & action - in your definition ("practice what
you preach").

Talking of hypocrisy ... you said ...
"He thought Rigel and his friends were cruel and judgmental toward
Lila and he thought it was moral to try to get them to see that. .....
This isn't about manners, domestic relations or what we are supposed
to do in polite society, of course, but its all about what people do
and how they treat each other for doing it."

I repeat, I'm not concerned with manners of politeness either, any
more than you are, just honesty and integrity DMB, same as you are.
Please honestly address what I do say, or desist with the responses.

Ian

I find it annoying and embarrassing and believe it NEEDS to be corrected, at least sometimes. I want the record to show that at least some people around here are unwilling to eat a bunch of bullshit. So, I simply explained what the word (hypocrisy) means and put that in contrast with the way you were using it, which was pure drivel. All actions are hypocritical? Dude, that's gotta be one of the stupidest things I ever heard. I realize its not very nice to say so, but I sincerely believe its the truth and that it needs to be said.
