Well, I'm sure you won't admit it, but the "dictionary definition"
(which often conflicts with common usage, or the way the speaker meant
to use the term) pretty much proves my point. All that I said was that
my point of view on the subject was pretty much unique. I did NOT say
what anyone ELSE should do, which is a necessary component of
both "righteousness" AND "self-righteousness
definition also refers to a "narrow" point of view. Well, gee, I guess
I have a "narrow" point of view about soliciting aomeone to commit
fraud. But I freely admit that my point of view is mine own alone, as
it would also be if my opinion were that casino hosts should be killed
and eaten.
The "care" you purport to have used in word selection was "care" to
select a term that was insulting, as opposed to being accurate. I feel
the way I feel. I have my own opinions, and my own ethical standards.
By reacting to those standards with a snotty comment, you merely
underscore my contention that most people don't feel the way I do.
What perplexes me is why you feel compelled to comment on it. You're
entitled to your opinion, and I to mine. But I'm not about to call you
an unprincipled thief (for example), because you feel that it's OK to
bribe a casino host. As I said, everyone has his own ethical standards.
