unreserved apology

Dear Tinfoilhatlady,

Some time ago I sent a series of communications to you via your YouTube account, which I imagine you do not remember, but I remind you caused you some degree of offense at the time. Although my position on your publically available opinions stand, my conduct in expressing my thoughts was both confrontational, for which I do not apologise, but also rude and impudent, for which I very much do. For yourself you took the measure of blocking me from communication, which I feel was warranted, and remained polite and courteous in your dealings with me. If there is any defence at all, which I would say is undermined by the manner in which it was argued, is that I feel very strongly about many of the things of which you speak. This is no excuse for bad behaviour, do not misunderstand me, but I have exceptional prejudice concerning the propagation of ignorance and credulity. I fear that is the sort of thing which you speak of. I may very well be wrong and I would be delighted to be proven so. I have two short positions to offer to close. Firstly, that I think that it reasonable to refute positions that require a prior acceptance of their truth. Secondly that selective biases of information leads to errors.

Good evening,

Radon777.

Hitch

Christopher Hitchens is with Jesus now. Aged 62 he died of pneumonia, he was diagnosed with oesophageal cancer in 2010. Loved the booze and fags, frighteningly clever.
