I am not sure what you are saying.....except that it seems you are saying that you are black and white about the JA, while I am grey? Is that what you mean?

Is it inconsistent to be able to talk about the good in the JA, as I have done in thousands of postings, while being critical which I have been in thousands of others? That doesn't make me inconsistent - it makes me an honest man.

Noel always said of the JA, you are either for us or against us...and JAs are only really comnfortable when they can pigeonhole people - judge them -

it drives people crazy (JA, ex-JA and anti-JAs alike) when someone can appear to say that the JA is peopled by many good people, while at the same time saying that much that they do, while well-intentioned, is damaging.

You and I both know someone who hates my guts because he laughably thinks I am an apologost FOR the JA; he hates me almost more than JAs who object to me being against them.
