James, what do you mean by "don't push it"? Are you asking me to not speak my mind to you? I can live with that because it's not something I only get to do with you.

I am a bit confused because on the other hand you are saying "allow me some room to speak my mind, otherwise you can just go back to your normal daily posts and I'll go on my way."

I am not sure what I would post if it's not speaking my mind to you in turn. In what way did what I write deny you "room to speak your mind"?

To be honest, I don't particularly need to post to you here, so if my posting is going to make you go away I'll refrain from posting responses to your posts. Because I am dying for you to keep visiting and posting on this board, i have so much to gain from it, lol!

I agree that you are saying many other things an official media person would not. I am sorry if I offended you, apparently it truly is your own opinion that in the 70s the world was more tolerant of certain sexual practices involving children (either that or it's a vague potential explanation you have, to mitigate what happened in the group, and which is possible for to hope was the case since you weren't around then).

It just reminded me very much of some stuff Borowik and her predecessors have said in attempting to shift responsibility from Berg's doctrines to wild baby boomers, so please forgive me for assuming that's where you got the idea. I was simply trying to tell you that it was just not the case. The "liberal liberality" did not extend to that area.
