Seems to me the " insult " may be in the eye of the beholder. ;-)

doesn't matter whether i thought it was an unfair characterization of the

argument or not. there are less insulting ways of expressing the sentiment.

so i suppose if someone said that to you, you'd take it as a compliment?

i'm apalled at the lack of ability people seem to have these days to put

themselves in another's shoes. (btw, this is a general comment - not aimed

Not necessarily a compliment, but it would not upset me. It's just the way

We all believe, in varying degrees, that our beliefs and ideas are right and

everyone else's are wrong.
