You're stretching the issue beyond the scope of what I was getting at.

Again: my point still stands. Mine was a yes or no question, and the answer was yes.

Its unfortunate that you generally dismiss such negative feedback as extreme, kneejerk, paranoid, religious zealotry rather than viewing it through the same sympathetic lens you ask of others.
It's unfortunate to me that you're grossly mischaracterizing what I've said. I'm only generally dismissing the rank-and-rabid protestors with their naive "evil empire" assessments. I will wholeheartedly embrace anyone approaching this dialog with depth and reason, as some have.

EDIT: maybe the confusion was caused by my saying I made a "general assessment". That was to point out I wasn't attacking you.
