See, this is the problem.  I enjoyed conversing with EFC until he decided to tell me that I could not "honestly" hold the views that I do.  Now, you're telling me that I probably read comments through rose-tinted glasses....
Why can't it be that we just look at things differently and have different opinions, and why would that not be OK?  
And, again, I don't think that he accuses "everyone he disagrees with of trolling".  I consider some of the posters to be trolls who simply write one-liners to put others down.  There is one person who wraps her put-downs in faux-kindness.  
You and I have had reasonable conversations, though we disagree on many things.  I don't want people to try to persuade me.  I merely want them to explain why they have a particular opinion.  That interests me.  
The level of sniping here is unpleasant.  I wish that people would just stop it, without waiting for others to do so.  But .....
Have a good day.  :-)
