      We know each other of old, clueless, and so you know that if I thought that I would have said that.:dunno: :snorky:
      But it is unlike you to "look the other way" when praising the virtues of Mankind while knowing the dangers our Political and Business Leaders are leading us into. I've always known you to get to a point and argue/discuss a point of view clearly and view both sides of opinion, so I was surprised to see what appeared to be an excusing of Mankind causing most of the problems that we, other species and the environment face.:doh::snorky:


      Well, don't be, Shiney, as you're more realistic about things in the World than me!!:love30::snorky:

      And Merry Christmas to you and Mrs Shiney:love30: too!!:heehee:

          You know I didn't excuse anyone or anything. You can see I acknowledged more than once that we have our faults and a lot of room for improvement.

          You win. If I was prepared to make it an argument, and had lots of practice at deliberately twisting the words of others to support my own case, perhaps I'd fare better in these discussions.

            Nobody wins, clueless:dunno::doh:. We're all losers in this discussion as we can't change, by ourselves, what is happening to the world, but at least we can acknowledge that we, Mankind, is saying all the right words but doing all the wrong things.:coffee::snorky:

              I'm impressed with that one. Of all the nuggets I posted that I knew you could have thrown back out there with a different context, I never anticipated that you could take me saying 'you win', and twist that to make it clear to the world that I'm lowest of the low, the cause of all the world's troubles through my own deliberate ignorance and stupidity.

              Well done :)

                Whoa!!, where did that come from?:doh::scratch:
                I've never, ever, in this thread or past threads, inferred or said directly, or indirectly, any of those things about you, clueless. But, just to make my thoughts clear I sincerely and honestly apologise fully to you without reservation for causing you to think that I have.

                  No need to apologise. It is I that should apologise. I know you are a good person. I also know that it is quite usual when a thread becomes political for some people to take things out of context.
