lol Not by any stretch.
Just after I reread it, it seemed like it would simply cause a pointless fight that would go nowhere.

And for some reason you thought that would be inappropriate for this forum?

He's a lifeguard, I think he has the right to say that certain words will not give life (in favour of future words that might).

Yes. I try not to offend anyone, I have tested the limits of the Forum and found the line.
While typing it I wasn't sure, after I posted it I went back and read it and read it like some on here probably would and figured many ways they could be offended and accuse me of flaming and trolling etc.
At which point the thread simply turns into a slanging match of accusation and defence.

@Strathos... what?

@Gotts... I'm not a lifeguard now man, too old lol
But thanks for the compliment, if I read it correctly then it was actually quite profound.
Although I don't quite make the connection between lifeguarding and the right to say words do or do not give life, I didn't help many drowning people with words and the 2 who were not breathing were not revived with words

I was joking -- most threads here turn into pointless exercises of trolling and flaming.

I understand. Some things are not worth saying. It is good to think ahead sometimes before posting. Usually, these posts are not going to sway the other side, and end up getting reported or counter attacked.

Wish I had the social skills to prevent myself from being rude before people became insulted.

I don't even know what this was about in the first place.

It's part of my complete lack of morals as an Atheist that allow me to think of others
