In my bit to reduce global ignorance, I have looked up the following big
words RELYING on the Oxford Dictionary, that you used.

Rhetoric :- Art of presenting words impressively

Thanks Chad. I didn't realise you were impressed.

Repeated :- occurred more than once. 

I did not repeat myself.

Ignorance :- lack of knowledge. 

For example not knowing the meaning of the words you write.

Gee thanks Grandma, can you tell me the truth now......

In your post you implied that I was ignorant and now you imply I am
lying. You are hereby strucken from my christmas card list.

Critiscism is not irrational hatred. What irrational Hatred am I
encouraging? Does critiscism make me a Terrorist. The use and supply of
weapons against civilians to further my ends in the world would be
irrational hatred and terrorist. 

Bombing, strafing and the murder of unarmed civilian crowds in Somalia
(The author of blackhawk down describes this in his book) is Irrational
hatred and more. Opposing the design and production of satanic devices
that make this possible is NOT irrational hatred, it is a logical valid
method to oppose people who betray Humanity.
