Re: [mukto-mona] Re: My Red State Blues!

WRT: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mukto-mona/message/50552

Avijit,

There is NO frustration here. When Sitangshu Guha made his posts attacking Democrats, I was the one who put in the moderators' notes making it clear that pamphleteering was not acceptable. It is interesting that that has been omitted here. Or, is there an official line that has to be towed? With Jaffor Ullah a sacred cow of sorts that cannot be responded to? Is this something that has been forgotten, or is it being conveniently ignored at the moment? Again, while Guha has been gracious, despite my being firm for the past few days, in acknowledging Obama's victory in sending in a post, Jaffor has been baying to the moon asking where Guha was. Whose is the more decent response?

As far as celebrations are concerned, I am one of the organisers at my university tomorrow on behalf of the Campus CFI group. That does not mean that I send in a dozen posts on one evening tooting my own horn.

Sure, call this response to Jaffor�silly if you would like to,�but I have little time for sycophancy of any kind, especially towards someone who has been little more than a boor on the forums in his behavior towards those who differ with him. Personally, I find this defense of boorishness silly, but then I have something to celebrate instead of continuing an argument beyond making a very specific and pertinent point.

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?
