Great letter, great tone. I suggest two minor corrections for the sake of clarity. I also spotted two typos:

Also, while I understand your religious views on Ggay marriage, I ask you to understand that our system of government and our rights as citizens do not spring from your church.  In fact, the very reason you remain untaxed as an example of how is that you are supposed to be apolitical, just as while, in contrast, the government is not a religious function.  Given that you do not feel constrained to prerserve this separation, I feel I have no choice but to ask my congressional representative to have your tax exempt status removed, with back taxes accruing from 1955 to the present.

Nice Job!

I'll be eagerly awaiting the results ... if any

Fuck off.  Your first correction is NOT what I wanted to say, and I stopped right there.  Leave me the fuck be, you stupid fucking mudfarmer.

No, she was a sweet and confused old lady.

Holist is a pedantic prick who can't stop singing his love for me.

Holist might potentially be more tolerable if he just accepted that his grasp on English isn't what he thinks it is.

Dear holist,
This turn of phrase doesn't belong here. It is supposed to convey that the other person (Nigel, in this case) is suffering from the same flaw as yourself (a poor understanding of the English language). Nigel's first language is English, and it does not appear to be yours. Thus, you have made yourself look foolish in an attempt to insult and shame Nigel, who had actually said something vaguely encouraging regarding you.

Sincerely,
Freeky.

:lulz: No, I freely admit that my grasp of your native language is nothing, although possibly you are arguing that it's not what I think it is, which would make it something. In which case I defer, as I cannot claim to be anything other than clueless.

But if you are seriously arguing that your plainly deficient grasp on American English is better than mine is, you're either stupid or delusional, puppy.

I also have to point out that his repetition of Roger's "let me be" in his response to me made no sense whatsoever in the context of the conversation. He entered Roger's thread to erroneously "correct" Roger's post. Roger replied to Holist's post, and I directed a comment to Roger regarding Holist. I did not directly engage Holist, nor was I posting in his thread, so for all intents and purposes, I WAS "leaving him be". His "whatever you farm" comment (which should, for grammatical accuracy, have been written as "whatever it is you farm") was a clear reference to Roger's "mudfarmer" comment, and also made no sense when directed at anyone besides Roger.

It seems that Holist is not, at any given time, certain what person on this board he is addressing.

In conclusion, I am not entirely certain that Holist is not a bot.
