- Hey, Eric. What is your problem? Are you just plain stupid? Or ignorant?
- First you misconstrue my response (which was just another way of saying
- abstinence - with no reference intended whatsoever to rape); then you ask
- me to apologize to raped women for congratulating a woman for getting pregnant.
-
- I see you enjoy throwing my words back at me. But since you are having a
- little trouble understanding my statements, I'll spell then out for you.
-
- Number one, abstinence is a sure way to prevent pregnancy. I do NOT believe
- that it is any deterent to a deranged rapist. I never said that abstinence
- had anything to do with being raped, nor did I intend it.
-
- Number two, I've never harassed a woman for being pregnant. In most cases,
- when I meet a pregnant woman, I congratulate her (and her husband, boyfriend
- if he's there too). Creating a child is something special to me, and I
- hope it is for others.
-
- But most of all, Eric, last semester I apologized to Susan for what I said to
- her. I
- admitted then and now that it was uncalled for. I also apologized to
- the network for my conduct. I came back hoping to start over again with
- some good, thought provoking communication, and I entered this forum with
- no hostility towards anyone. You were the first to draw any blood between
- me and the rest of the network. Say it if it makes you feel better, but
- you are not going to draw me into any senseless flame wars. It is your
- choice if you wish to keep that alive.
-
- Like I always have believed, you have the right to say whatever you
- want. Just remember respect.
