Thank you Mr. Richard Hill from Marshalltown for responding to my letter calling Trump a con man! You have inadvertently given me the philosophical and psychological opportunity to discuss your claim that I hate Trump and that I dislike Republicans and Christians.

Ever since Trump ran for president his opponents have been labeled haters and that is the psychological tool Mr. Hill used to discredit my thoughts. His argument since I supposedly hate Trump clouds my judgment in being able to differentiate the good in Trump and the bad in Biden.

Richard is right, the ability to analyze the good in someone and bad in another is wisdom! Then he proclaims only wisdom comes from God! So I assume Richard believes God has not given me wisdom.

In a debate, using hate as a tool to discredit displays a psychological weakness, a tactic to sidestep issues. That is exactly what Mr. HIll did to discredit me, and he clearly avoided the major issues in my disagreements with Trump and his actions.

The word hate is probably the most abused word in the English language and hatred is an extreme psychological position that can destroy the mental and physical body.

Frankly I shouldn’t have to explain my human relationships to Mr. Hill or anyone else! However I have long term neighbors who are Republicans, I exchange help, I do business, I sit in church, and I socialize with Republicans. If I really disliked Republicans and Christians, I wouldn’t want to be near them and my mind would be really messed up.

It is obvious my philosophical, psychological differences on religion and secular issues upset Richard, but I will not apologize to gain favor or acceptance.

Mr. Hill put himself in philosophical trouble when he proclaimed that Wisdom comes from God because he is making a faith statement! A faith claim cannot be proven in any court anywhere on this planet! In fact it is shameful for anyone to use that claim as a psychological weapon towards those who disagree.

To be clear, if a Democrat tried to steal an election like Trump I would be just as outraged. However, there is a psychological difference between me and Trump supporters! I would immediately apologize to all those who voted against the democratic insurrectionist! I am still waiting for an apology from any Trump supporter.
