Instead of just asking questions with an open mind, they assume, presume, accuse and make asses of themselves."
This is an absolute statement. If something is absolute, it is 100% one way or another; it is not relative or comparative. It doesn't leave room for variation - just as here. Glad to help.
Your point is similar to that which induced his spate of rudeness instead of a straight answer way back at the start, when I asked: "So some who criticise you, in your experience, do really know religion?" ("but some people on that holiday might have enjoyed it?"). A response not surprising, since Movieliker would have to accept this reasonable qualification if his claim is not to be taken as absolute, as he insists - one which I would be happy to accept. His recent " All intelligent believers have a personal relationship with God.", one noted, was not even qualified by his unassailable experience, which just adds to the sense of someone expecting his judgements to be taken as definitive. But this is all water under the bridge. His most recent absolute statement, and the continuing impression it gives, I have dealt with in my last posting.
