Well said.
Probably could not have been said, er, weller. Though I'd suggest the Christian axiom of "Love the sinner, hate the sin" is nowhere near appropriate here if anyone thinks of it. That still makes the man guilty-as-charged. We need acts of reason here, not appeals to authority ... even if the "authority" is one based on reasonable thinking. If someone says something here that makes you angry -- identify the true source of the anger and deal with it; not the messenger.
And remember the Code of the Babblelonians: Be civil, and Your Mileage May Vary.
Great wits are sure to madness near allied,
And thin partitions do their bounds divide.
