I just wanted to use the title. Bet it's been done a thousand times before anyway

Oh I do; I just ask you to justify and explain it. I'm awkward like that.

So you retract what you said about getting people to lay off you?

A nice sentence, with as much true meaning in terms of the English language as one would see in a Brass Eye episode.
For the record, Mrs Light is fine about my ridicule of both the office of the papacy, and the former pope himself. She understands something called Freedom of Expression. For my part, I have the courtesy not to share my more extreme views about catholicism with her. You don't have that option on a public web forum. If you don't like the views expressed, by all means say so. Telling people to stop...that's different.

Really? I hadn't realised that. And what you say makes perfect sense, though your actions on this board don't match what you say there. Mind you, I don't claim to know the ins and outs of your relationship, so...

Pending answers to the above, I'd be happy to.

Yes. You should. Or, I'll douse you with this Holy water already.

What I viewed as Mr. Thraves subjecting the Papacy to ridicule was truly unbecoming of his just nature. Apparently, it wasn't his intent. I'm almost positive the Catholic soon-to-be Mrs. Light would have similar views of you and subjugate as you fumble your integrity with your pride.

I was going to say that I'm his girlfriend and all, but then that would be implying I have some kind of control over the man in that capacity. No. He has a mind of his own. A beautiful one at that. I honestly don't believe he'd restrict me from registering my opinion about anything. I can, however, appreciate and respect his views when I mis-step. It goes both ways.
[edit] Now, now will you please, dear Sir Light, stop.

That was a magnificent...avoidance of the question. If you want to slate me, be my guest. But answer the question.

I'll stop once you quit coming up with various pieces of anodyne sentiment to avoid addressing that you don't want to answer, whilst demanding everyone else abide by your rules in debate.

You're a fine example, Mr. Holier Than Thou.

I think..exactly what I said about it. *sighs* Now stop before I sprinkle you with Holy water.

Indeed, I'll be there in a few.

No. He's already King.
[edit] It's given him a big enough head already...:P

I'm putting the finishing touches to my letter of application.
No, really.

Ever stop to think that others feel passion for views that oppose yours? And that they should no more "lay off" than you should douse your passion on the subject?

So...because you're a catholic, no-one should take the proverbial out of the papacy? I mean, you're welcome to register your distaste about it and all, but don't you think you're being...well, rather totalitarian minded?
