I did not make it personal. I criticized the article. I criticized the poster for lack of critical reading skills when he analyzed the article as evenhanded. That is a disagreement over the merits of the article.

I criticized the poster for lack of critical reading skills when he analyzed the article as evenhanded.

It you had said it that way, it would not have been making it personal because you would be expressing your own mind and not reading his.

But the way you actually said it (below) is reading his mind and therefore, making it personal.

Since you aren’t an evenhanded person when it comes to Catholic stuff, you think biased innunendo is “evenhanded.”

You don’t have a clue.

The former is robust debate but the latter is flame bait.
