It is one thing to call someone's opinion absurd. But to make assumptions on how people have been 'disgusted' by our thread and our views and left the board because of it, is another thing. And a telling thing about you.</STRONG>

I think something needs to be clarified here. Stella, I think you misunderstand Abducted. I don't think he's making assumptions. I think he's talking about actual people he knows about. Certainly, I know people who could fit the description he gives, people who've done and felt as he describes. In that case, maybe he shouldn't have used the word "perhaps", but I think that may have been just a figure of speech.
