@ghost-of-a-duke saidI beg to differ. Everything he writes and everything I write is here for all to see. People can make up their own minds whether my contributions are pertinent and whether KellyJay's ministry benefits from his silence.
Not if he ignores everything you write.
@fmf saidA high percentage of the posts you make in this forum are directed at Kelly, which is decidedly odd considering he never replies to any of your posts.

If you continually direct posts at somebody who clearly doesn't want to engage with you, how is that not trolling?

@ghost-of-a-duke saidThey are, nevertheless, worthy contributions in a public arena.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidIt's not "trolling" because what is added to the public discourse is relevant. His inability or unwillingness to deal with the scrutiny, and the implications for the credibility of the claims he makes, is a matter for him.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidWhy are you repeating the same question?

@fmf saidWhy not just leave it to people he does engage with?

@fmf saidBecause you edited it out of your first reply and it was pertinent.

@fmf saidIf you continually direct posts at somebody who clearly doesn't want to engage with you, it 'IS' trolling.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidBecause I don't want want to. My views on KellyJay's claims about the universe and the human condition are just as valid as those of others here. They are also often different.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidI don't think it is. If I were to send him unsolicited PMs then maybe yes. But I am not. I am airing my perspectives in public on the perspectives he has aired in public. If he chooses to blank them out, that's for him. People can make of it what they will.

@fmf saidThis is the last post I'll make about you trolling Kelly. (Before you play your cliché card and accuse me of the thing I am accusing you of).

@ghost-of-a-duke saidBut I answered each part as I always do.
Because you edited it out of your first reply and it was pertinent.
@fmf saidReply to his points then in open posts. Don't direct questions at him that you know he won't respond to.
