...snidely pretending to discuss a matter when you are really attacking the person...
extremely, I am sorry you feel that way about my post. While you may not believe it, it was not my intention to attack him. That I used his behavior as a springboard ensures that my comments can be taken as directed towards him, but that was not what I was trying to do. I mentioned what was going on in the first couple of paragraphs and then used the rest of the post to make my point:

Don't go to Utah if your sole intent is to make fun of Mormons

That's it. That's all I was trying to say.

Cheers,
Ovid

Update #3: I have deleted my previous updates as I don't want a flame war. I do agree with extremely's comments about downvoting past nodes to teach someone a lesson. I haven't done this and I hope no one else would.
