In another discussion within the last year, this member has claimed in another context (once again, apparently to appear authoritative) to have worked extensively with immigrants. Challenged on that, his/her response was to the effect that the immigrants were incarcerated awaiting deportation.
It's all just too much of a stretch of credulity that his member seems so often to have had experience which would seem to lend authority to his/her statements.
Really? You can't fathom that someone with a teaching certificate and training in adult literacy and numeracy might work teaching in prison?
And that some people in prison might be there for visa and/or passport fraud and awaiting deportation?
I don't know how to help you understand how that could work if you can't do that yourself.
Quote:In view of an earlier admission that he/she had lied about his/her gender
in order to see what reactions he/she would get, it stretches credulity to the breaking point.
oh my goodness - why spend so much of your time worrying about it?
U know, Rebecca,
from Mr. Setanta 's acrimonious rhetoric of denunciation,
exhibited in your nested quote, I surmise that he is
jealous
of your success in life. U have made the point that u modestly live
your life, trying to help others and to offend no one,
but I infer from his quoted post, that
envy moves Setanta to complain about u.
Setanta reminds me of another person
who appeared to have been similarly afflicted in his mind:
someone with whom I am familiar
amused children at a summer resort by throwing them coins (no nickels nor pennies),
falling in the grass, like an Easter Egg hunt,
including Morgan silver dollars from the 1800s
and scattering $10 gold pieces from the 1800s for the children.
This other fellow, of whom Setanta reminds me,
while watching the said distribution of coins stated to anyone within earshot:
"he 's just trying to make
me look bad."
From knowing Setanta as well as it has been our misfortune to know him,
we can presume that if he had arrived on that day,
he 'd have (
ego-centrically) alleged
that it was done to make Setanta look bad.
It appears that Mr. Setanta considers himself to be
a loser in life
and he resents anyone who has not lost as badly as he deems himself to have failed.
Most likely, he bears this same resentment
against all posters on this forum, assuming that he is
inferior to them all
(as per his
demonstrated resentment of the authority achieved by yourself)
hence his ubiquitous ill will and his spiteful vilifications cast in all directions.
Will your use of reasoning, Rebecca, elevate him from the throes of mental incapacity ?
Good luck with that.
David
