Oh he's sourced it alright. Where Jesus falls short is indeed presentation and also spelling the practical, real-world implications of what he states, in utterly basic laymen's terms.

I intervene with my own messages and do just that sometimes. See above.

Earendil is saying not to insult the people their trying to persuade. I, for one, give less credibility to someone who calls me an idiot for disagreeing with or even questioning their opinions.

What does that post have to do with mine? Did I proffer insults somehow?
