It's sad.
It is. It's also sad how there are folks like Rutherford who avoid subjecting their theories to academic peer review but sell them to those ignorant enough to believe unsubstantiated rhetoric. Those purveyors of this are simply exploitng a market, but some of their followers unable to handle academic criticism get extreme.
That being said, the trolls and fanatics here are really well behaved compared to what you find out on the usenet. You ever visited usenet groups, Jar? There are some truly demented vicious wacko's roaming out there. Makes me appreciate how gentle the trolls and wackos that post here are. I really think Kendemeyer for example is simply misguided and rationally impaired but his zeal though often annoying is sincere. Chin is a guy who wants to get nasty but again displays more self control than the psychos out in the usenet.
