Another e-mail from said list owner in my inbox tonight. This time saying that I am "constantly sniping" at him, "after all that [he's] done for [me]."

• I have not been constantly sniping at him.
• He hasn't done anything for me, so far as I know; I wouldn't mind clarification on that point, but I won't be responding to his e-mails.

Apparently I am being nasty and arrogant, as well. Yes, I am capable of both, but I didn't think I was behaving like that in this instance. (Well, I mean, aside from my public posts about the whole incident. Which I'm only making because I think people should know not to join said group.)

The best is when he says he deserves respect because he's laboured so long in the field, so selflessly, and follows that up by asking what happened to my Christian upbringing. And his final point is that I should check out how I treated him over the years because it was inappropriate.

• People who actually deserve respect don't need to request it.
• I do my best to offer respect to all people, until they show me that they don't deserve it. This is because I am a Christian. I don't let other people's opinions sway me one way or another.
• If I recall correctly, any time I "sniped" at this person, it was in direct response to his claims that all bad things in the world are due to feminism, and anyone who disagrees with him on anything is a feminist (in the bad sense). Since I am female, these claims were often directed towards me, especially when I was working as a behaviour therapist (the worst kind of feminist, apparently).

If he wants to actually discuss this, let it happen openly. I won't be e-mailing him; he can comment to my blog if he actually wants to "set the record straight."
