I probably shouldn't even dignify this with a response, but here goes.
In the second post of this thread you wrote the following:
is he/she the stereotypical pseudo-intellectual self-righteous douche athiest ...
Now let's be clear here, that's a lot of judgments we've already thrown around about athiests.
Judgements I threw around about
athiests I wouldn't vote for, a broad group And I even threw in "stereotypical" to imply that I didn't see all athiests this way and was trying to describe a type of person.
Chad asked for some clarification as to why you applied all of those adjectives to athiests and asked for a way to distinguish athiests from other belief systems in how they apply to those qualities. You had already responded to him once by repeating the same series of epithets in combination with athiests.Personally, I thought he was taking you a bit too seriously given that your rhetoric was obviously overblown, so I stepped in when he asked for elaboration a second time.
So you ACTUALLY in fact insulted me
PERSONALLY by inferring that I should not be taken seriously. Hmmm, interesting considering that to this point I had said nothing about ANY specific people.

I've been 15 before. I remember speaking that way because having overly strong opinions is impressive to your peers. I get it. But if Chad had known who he was talking to (I suspect, he can correct me if I'm wrong) he wouldn't have asked for clarification because he would have seen it for what it was. You see, Chad's been 15 before too. That's why I wrote that you didn't actually mean anything (after all, your stream was just a bunch of nonsense words when thrown together in that combination) and that you said it because it impresses your "idiot friends." Now that may have been too harsh. I don't really know any of your friends. I have no ability to determine which ones are idiots and which ones aren't (although I'd be stunned if you didn't think some of them were idiots too). What I was really going for was that "this kind of rhetoric is a product of his age, and the usual audience is a bunch of other people his age. You wouldn't take demographic and social commentary seriously from a 15 year old under any other circumstance, because they usually don't know anything, and this isn't the time to start." Hence my final point. "Just ignore him."
I don't really know any of the people you have settled for. I have no ability to determine which ones are fat and which ones are ugly (although I'd be stunned if you didn't think some of them were fat and ugly too). What I was really going for was that "this kind of rhetoric is a product of his inability to obtain attractive females, and the usual audience is a bunch of fat and ugly women. You wouldn't take disparaging remarks seriously from a guy like that under any other circumstance, because they usually are ornery and pissed at the world, and this isn't the time to start." Hence my final point. "Just ignore him."

If I am guilty of slandering all 15 year olds everywhere for being less knowledgable than the adults so be it. I'll cop to it. I'll even assert the defense of truth. If any of your friends read that statement and are convinced that I'm speaking about them personally I'll be happy to speak with them about it.
I do not know what the people you date look like. Thereofre I do not know if I can assert the defense of truth. If any of them read that statement and are convinced that I'm speaking about them personally I'll be happy to speak with them about it. (Unless they're fay and ugly)

Your statements are of a very different kind. They are obviously applicable to a specific person
No they're not. I stated a group of people, just like you.

who has had her picture posted across the board several times. A person that also reads the board and is aware of statements that you are making about her, a fact that I made you aware of in the hopes that you would have a better understanding as to why your escalation was inappropriate and hurtful to another person who has never engaged you.
I've never seen a picture of her, but if you're posting pictures of your girl friend on the internet, that's a little weird. You don't know who else is reading this board either or if any of my freinds are who you called "idiots." You
KNEW FOR A FACT I read the boards but thought it was OK to insult me.

The assertion that it's somehow my fault that you would call a third person ugly and fat is ridiculous. You are your own person. Those are your words. That's who you are, silly colors, fonts and repeated punctuation marks included.
I never said it was your fault I said it. I said it's your fault if she was insulted. In the end, we
BOTH made statements about
GROUPS of people we know nothing about. It would be pretty pathetic if any of those people were offended by those comments or found them insulting considering the sources and circumstances. My initial offer to your request for an apology still stands. You apologize to me and I will apologize to you. Prove me wrong about your maturity level.
