Hi Littlejohn,

I have found, over many years, Sheshbazzar to be one of the most astute, scholarly, friendly, and polite people on the planet earth.

It is true, that we have crossed swords, from time to time, but he always put the epee back in his belt, instead of thrusting it into my neck, as he could have.

For what it is worth, I happen to share his opinion on this matter, and think that you may wish to consider sending an apology to Acharya, as she is a member of this forum, in addition to having her own forum.

She is a nice person, in my opinion, and would appreciate a simple sentence explaining that, as someone unfamiliar with English language nuance, you inadvertently violated an unwritten code, by broadcasting your portion of a private message.

The main point here is for you to understand that Roger Pearse, Bingo the Clown-O, and Sheshbazzar rarely find a topic upon which they all agree with one another!

That should tell you something!!! (hint: maybe they are correct!)

In principle, I can say I agree with you ... Let's look now at the things on which I do not agree.

"..I have found, over many years, Sheshbazzar to be one of the most astute, scholarly, friendly, and polite people on the planet earth..."

These are your impressions and experiences ... However I have every reason to say the exact opposite, believe it or not! ..(*)

"..and think that you may wish to consider sending an apology to Acharya, as she is a member of this forum, in addition to having her own forum..."

Very well! ... Let it be, so, the same Acharya to intervene! .. I make known to you that I treated Mss. Acharya always with great tact and courtesy, while, sometimes, she was angry with me ... I also arrived to thank her, because, back in the '90s, when I started my research (starting from virtually nothing), I benefited of the extensive reviews of her first work, which, at the time, were circulating on the net ...

"..She is a nice person.."

I NEVER CLAIMED otherwise! ... To tell the truth, it bothers me a bit her excessive racism toward the Islamic world (but if it was a different religion, it would have been the same). However this is another story that has nothing to do here ....

"..you inadvertently violated an unwritten code, by broadcasting your portion of a private message..."

I DO NOT HAVE VIOLATED absolutely nothing, let alone the privacy of Mss. Acharya, since that what I have published here it is material written by me! .. The answers given to me by Acharya to my messages, have NOT been published!

"..That should tell you something!!!.."

Listen .. if I have decided to publish what I posted, it have been only to stimulate a legitimate debate around this issue (namely, the contrast between the historicist and mythological theory), and NOT for violating someone's privacy: something that I have absolutely not done! ...

WHAT IS IT? ... You has absurdly mounted a case to have the excuse to kick me out? ... If so, then say so openly ... After the one I will go away alone ..
