Kimberly, I'm not arguing with anyone. I don't care whether anyone agrees with me or not. Nor do I have any desire to influence other people.

I write for a living, i.e. to earn money. I also write to empty my brain of its current thoughts. If I don't do that, then those thoughts are there all day as it goes round and round in my brain. I have explained this many times.

In case you haven't noticed, I quote many sources verbatim to back up what I say.

The problem that you have is not with the 'tone and breadth of the piece.' It is that it offends you personally, and that is not my problem.
