To use a slightly dated phrase with all sincerity....

You really are a class act. *grins* That was a fantastic put down.

Thank you. The best part is, the more the jackass argues with me, the more money I make.

Excellent. Also, your response was exceptionally well done.

Sweet!

Brilliant and well said. I also agree with you as far as religion in schools go. I would have loved to take a class on comparative religion. I think quite a few young people are interested in religions other than their own, but don't have the drive or ability to thoroughly research them on their own.

That was an excellent, excellent response. Good for you! *cheers*

Thank you. I had actually posted this beforre I calmed down enough to respond to the dude. I sort of can't believe I actually shut him up.

You did a great job. I probably would have ranted at him incoherently. ;)

I was also impressed by the number of commenters who leaped to defend you and call him out for trollish behavior. Looks like a nice community.

It's fairly well-behaved. It's not particularly compelling (I don't have friends there like I do on LJ, nor would I ever expect to), but they are trying to make it more so. And while mostly you "earn points" that are redeemable for gift certificates as you post, they actually pay me to write entertainment content, which is nice. My review on Blood Diamond will be on their homepage tomorrow, which means I should get traffic bonuses too.

Interesting that he frames it as some kind of deal about your father (like, all women are in thrall to their male parent's religious opinion of them?).

I think I am more disturbed by the well-meaning soul who called you "kiddo".

are heathens the same thing as pagans?

Dear heathens,

Falwell accidently helping you is *hot*.

Kudos!

As usual, you rise above the mediocre in this world...

Thank you.

Hey, are you back?

Re: Kudos!

Finally, yes I am back...but only until 12/22. I will be back in January, too (I think...might have another DC job)
