Hopefully he's an idiot, for the fires of Hell burn brighter the more sin is bolstered by deliberation. (Please note, primarily, Lat. "libera" root.)
Nobody? You sure? Then why are we talking? Oh, right, because we keep feedi ng him nickels so that he can shovel attentionalcherries.
I do not think anyone reads any of LOT's threads or for that matter, that anyone goes into the "Feeneyite" section because it is all composed of his postings. He had long ago now worn out his welcome and has established himself as a nut case. Without LOT there would be no "Feeneyite" sub-forum. Nobody on CI reads what he writes except a few people who see the strict interpretation of the dogmas on EENS as a rebuke to their belief that all people of "good" will are saved. I think that amounts to LOT and just two other persons.
In the air warfare they have a material called chaff, a radar countermeasure in which aircraft spread a cloud of small thin pieces of aluminum which swamps the radar screen with many false targets, thereby hiding the real plane. LOT is just spreading chaff on this EENS forum.
