Yowza !

What a little shit. Now I remember why I un-subscribed last time.

Tell me, who even cares if it is a "morph" or not? Read the arguments. That is what matters. You can read, right?

A newly minted antiextropian,

Eliezer does NOT deserve to be written about this way. Your insults and sarcasm only shoot yourself in the foot(I would say you shot it off completely). This tone and attitude will not get you anywhere and has only succeeded in probably getting everyone to totally close their minds and hearts to you. In my view, another round of insulting language like this from you should result in your being banned.

Being a "morph" would indicate deception. At this point I realize from the posts of others this is not the case here. But at the time Eliezer had written his post this information had not been brought forward.

sincerely,

John Grigg
