The Story of Kwanzaa

777, ALL holidays are made up holidays.

 

That's funny, picking up where we left off on the breakdown of your exhibition of Rush Limbaugh's behavior:

5. Use the word "Liberal" in perpetuity, noting that they are condescending.

6. Make absolute statements about "liberals," despite the fact that the "liberal" in question never said what is claimed.

This is more intellectual dishonesty. I only spoke for myself, as exhibited in the fact that, by your own admission, I said it was "not [my] place to question" the celebration of kwanzaa. I made that clear when I wrote that it was not "MY" place, rather than speaking for everyone. I did not write the phrase "that should apply to everyone as well," and you know it. I asked you to stop being intellectually dishonest, and yet you continue.

More intellectual dishonesty - I am not speaking for everyone, I am simply pointing out how obvious it was. Again, I asked you to stop being intellectually dishonest, and yet you continue.

This behavior has already been noted.

I guess you answered my question with a question yet again.

More intellectual dishonesty - I have no idea what that means, but I am not acting like the thread police. Again, I asked you to stop being intellectually dishonest, and yet you continue.

And yet, you referenced the link to the martinlutherking.org website, didn't you? If it was everywhere, then why would you reference this site? That certainly speaks volumes.......

More intellectual dishonesty - I am not defending it. I have been trying to ascertain why you feel so compelled to "de-legitimize" it, especially given the fact that you don't celebrate it, and the people who do are not bothering you.

Um...... okay....... right........ WHAT?

I already said that, since you have written that you don't listen to Rush, I will take you at your word. It is funny that you continue to exhibit similar behavior, though. It must simply be coincidental.

This is almost verbatim to what you wrote previously.
Again, using your own words, I said it was not my place to question the celebration. Thank you for clarifying that fact yet again. And, because I was speaking for myself, that simply shows that your second charge is completely wrong. I made a point to clearly state that it was not my place.

Wow, all this intellectual dishonesty in a public forum for all to see: 777, I'm embarrassed for you.

Thanks for writing this yet again, just in case anyone missed it the other times you posted these sentences....

YIKES!

Hey Everyone,

Looking back at my post, when I was quoting 777, the "quote" command literally reproduced the hyperlink to the website in question [the old bb software didn't literally reproduce it]. I have asked LadyEagle to take out the hyperlink.

I won't make that mistake again.....

Regards,
BiR

 

On that note, this thead is being closed. Enough information is posted on this thread for those who are interested in the true meaning of Kwanzaa to form their own opinions as to whether or not it is just a holiday or has other purposes as to its origins.
