“So, what I have suggested to myself and to others is to stay in your communities and discuss these things of common interest.”

That is wonderful, if what one values most is being agreed with and not having to substantiate what one asserts. If one actually wants a conversation, however–at least, one that is more than mutual congratulations and agreement–one must risk being disagreed with. Disagreement is not evil. Lashing out with insults and false accusations when one is disagreed with, however, most definitely falls short of the standards of decent Christian discourse.

“So, just FYI. The experiments at trying to dialogue are failures – total and utter failures.”

Only if one failed in one’s personal agenda and projects that failure as everyone else’s failure. There is a wealth of things that COULD be learned from the attempt, if one is willing to learn them.

If you are determined to take offense at others daring to read what you write, perhaps the motivation in writing could be examined a bit. People don’t generally write in order to be ignored, especially by those they’re targeting with their writing.
