Well, that may very well be for "people", but it has nothing to do with the 
fact that is was *I* who was accused of exemplifying this shortsightedness 
DESPITE my attempt to help one side see things through the eyes of the 
other.  I do not care to be publicly criticized for transgressions I've not 
committed.

FWIW, I personally do not believe in The Big Invisible Friend,  but I do 
not like to see people behave in a close-minded and intolerant fashion.
