  No I did not say that.  No wonder you can't follow the reasoning,
because you are saying something that is not in the text.  You are being
eisegetical, extrapolating meanings not intended. :). I said, simply
put, he is entitled to his opinion- in his forum.  No one asked to see
his opinion on *this* forum, did they?  So, regarding his opinions, let
him have them.  Have yours too.  Let's just all make sure we are not
just bickering aimlessly over stuff that doesn't mean much anyway.
  The key word of this passage is "so what?".  At the end of the day- it
makes no difference what Bolle or whoever thinks about this list, as long
as those who enjoy it continue to do so.
