SAMPLE – PERSONAL LETTERS – EDUCATED RESPONSE TO FLAME

I read your posting about [posting subject]. Without question, yours is the most childish, unreasoned, absurd position on the topic I have ever read. Among intelligent people, debates are conducted with logic and civility, not insult and profanity. Your posting has all the hallmarks of a fanatic up on his soap box, preaching to the pigeons. If you are going to participate in the forum in the future, please learn something from the rest of us: reason, polite discourse and careful thought are the only kinds of behavior that will be tolerated in our group.

If you can’t master those disciplines, I suggest you find yourself another cadre of narrow-minded reactionaries to torture. Basically, smart up or stay out!
