Iconoclast NOT!Again, I never said you were required to believe anything!
It is YOU who get angry and hostile and call ME A LIAR just because I disagree with you. You are the Grand Inquisitor trying to stifle the heretics. You are the opposite of an iconoclast--you are trying to prevent the chipping away of one of your idols, the man-made global warming icon.
You start by saying I'm not required to believe anything, and your next statement clearly says that if I don't agree with you, I'm not an Iconoclast.
Therefore, you are requiring me to agree with your nonsense, in order to justify my name. I'll quote from the dictionary, because you seemed to be confused about the word require.
Require, definition 2b: "to demand as necessary or essential."
Your claim seems to be that a requirement of being an Iconoclast is that one must challenge the same authorities that you challenge, or perhaps every authority, you really don't make it clear.
Also, the fact that I'm named the Renegade Iconoclast seems to completely whoosh by you.
