Hi armp,

I am sorry. I only saw your 123 post last night. I haven't spent much time on ihub and must have missed your previous post.

The ban was due to a rather persistant wavoid troll who visits this board frequently. I assumed that as usual, the new handle was him and he was employing his usual knee-jerk response to any subject. The 123 was to give the real armp a means of authenticating himself just in case. We got there in the end.

You are no fool. There are versions of almost every side of every argument somewhere online. But I had to read a bit before I discovered anything like what you seemed to be saying. I believe the last pope felt a bit the way you appear to about Galileo.

I don't agree with Ratzinger. But you are welcome to make your point or his. I am sure you will make an interesting argument, as you reliably do on ihub. For myself, I already got the opportunity to refresh my memories on Aquinas, Aristotelian physics, Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler etc which was fun. And I am trying to make sense of Islam and its affect on the world, as many people are.

I've moved from tolerance - even after 9/11 - to the realisation that a large number of these folks believe things that are incompatible with my liberal ideals. I am not willing to seek a middle ground between on the one hand a secular and inclusive sort of liberty and, on the other, religious injunction.

Alea

On the other discussion site you referred me to this discussion site that you launched. I then started at the beginning and read my way up to the then present. Since then I have continued to follow the various discussions just to pick up any interesting points of view.

So yes, Armp the fool is the same as the other Armp. I’m not uncomfortable with any perception that anyone might have of me. The truthfulness of the "name" only endures so long as I fail to grasp a subject after being corrected. It will happen again as it has in the past.

I posted a comment here because I wanted your penetrating thoughts on the matter. Instead my access was blocked and was told to post 123 on the other discussion site where the Armp handle is known. I did and the access block was not removed. Checking back there I see that my message was deleted and so perhaps you didn’t have a chance to see the verification or didn't care to engage on the subject.

So, returning form a trip I checked back to this site again to see what was being discussed and noticed the topic was continuing. So, I tried again to access but was still blocked. Returning to the other site I tried again with the identity code you requested but this time specifically in reply to a posting you made to improve the chance of you noticing it.

Right this week I'm very short on time to gather my thoughts. Allow me to get past the current time crunch.

Thanks for unblocking message from Armp.
