I bounced that post to oneironaut, who has been observing my ongoing incredulity and occasional bouts of snarkiness on the subject of this particular fellow since his appearance; gtst asked for context on my ravings. (Your original response got the commentary, "Go Rivka." Gtst has expressed in the past that gtst thinks you're cool. ;) )

Am I going to meet this person at ap9, I hope?
Anyway, I can't take credit for the best line in that response - that was Mary McCarthy all the way. But it is kind of oneironaut to approve.
I got, after some delay, the response, "... Protestant church?"
Just a couple of months ago, I got a letter from my old Protestant church explaining that they were still paying dues for me because I was on the rolls, and I hadn't shown up to church in some time, and was I still interested? And I sent them a very nice card explaining that I had joined the First Unitarian Church of Baltimore, but wished them well.
I'm really having issues with the fellow, as I can't . . . can't imagine anything I say actually being useful, but he's being so preposterous and offensive that I feel an urge to say something.
Yes. The voice in the back of my head keeps composing lengthy footnoted responses debunking each of his preposterous claims about HIV. But really, it just makes me sad. I keep thinking of my patients who have died, and how much they struggled, and then his posts don't seem funny at all.
