@ You may want to re-think your conclusion - at least as far as it
relates to where I'm coming from.

It has nothing to do with what I don't "like". It has EVERYTHING to
do with the fact that the way I think and the way "_some other people
think_" is like night and day (polar opposite) - regardless of the
subject (political, religious, cultural).

Therefore I will reject as invalid and moot, any and all opinions of
those _"some people"_ to the degree that they show evidence of
"thinking" like those described
here: http://www.heritage.org/Press/Events/ev030507a.cfm

These "polar-opposite-from me-thinkers" are also succinctly described
in this book:

~ Janice ... If you ever see me attempting to "reason" with such
"thinkers", or with those who are naive enough to trust their
opinions, please have me committed - I will have lost my mind.:)
