Re: My original problem

"To say say someone read things into your stories that weren't there,
*is* to say they misrepresented you."

Yes, I suppose so. If the laws of the English language apply to Peter
Khan they do to me as well. And I do think it was unfair when Shahkar
said "you have called shunning an act of hatred." I also think it was
odd when he said that the Baha'i Faith is the only religion that
practices shunning. A lot of anabaptists do it, and I hear that the
JWs do as well, so it isn't unique. It doesn't mean I think the LSA
would have changed its mind about me, but a few of the things Shahkar
read were as unfounded as Brent's claim about my latest story.
