If you have some objection to my posts Jack - rather than you having digs and personal snipes at me - which YOU ARE doing - I respectfully suggest you take it off the main board and to pm.

In that case then, let me directly respond to this part of your last post. Now let's see if you should've taken his post so seriously or not.

But there wasn't any counter opinion/argument to his comment.
A counter-opinion would be to say it's not an ancient religious practice, and the fact of the matter is - it is. So there's no possible way you could 'counter-argue' that at all. And then the only other option would be to say that you were counter-arguing his post by saying that it doesn't excuse the foulness of the crime, in which case his original post didn't excuse it either, he merely stated what it was. Again, no possibly way of offering a counter-opinion. It's a fact that it's an ancient religious practice and he never once used that fact to defend the crime itself. Therefore, yes, you did take his post too seriously.
