Your criticisms don't bother me - I stopped reading them. Dallas may be
indirectly blasting people (hard to tell, usually he just seems like he's
preaching) - but you are doning it directly. And when someone does it as
single-mindedly as you are, it makes me wonder what the underlying intention
is. Are you trying to accomplish a specific end? Trying to reform the ULT?
Get people to quit? Is there a *present* goal in your blasting of the dead?
If so, why not criticize those you see as currently holding the attitudes of
which you speak? They can at least answer your charges.
