Great to see the Critic pushing the boundary once again

Woah. Righto. Guess I believe the severity of your feelings if you have to resort to insulting me to express them. No one actually believes he's a 'god', obviously - it's a humorous way to say he's an unusual character, particularly given his (admittedly weird) spiritual allusions. Personally I've only ever witnessed kindness and love from him, though I also know from the recollections of others (and himself) that that isn't always the case, and it's entirely believable that he can be awful to be around at times. Particularly given some of the shit that has gone down in the last few years, not that that provides any excuse. I don't aim to ignore or deny the existence of anyone's bad qualities - we all have them, some worse than others. I remain grateful for the positive things he does for the people around him in spite of the negative.

Sorry to have upset you and apparently directly contribute to domestic abuse I guess. I'll go back to applying my 5 year-old 'eq' to writing my doctoral thesis instead.
