I truly fascinating introduction to yourself Faye. Welcome to forums and I hope you will find yourself at home here.
One of the few rules we have here is that you must not 'flame' people, e.g. tell them that they are stupid, even if you think they are. Flaming people gets the mods upset, and gets your posts deleted, so best not to do it. If you do want to say something critical of someone it might be wise to run it past one of mods (their names appear in blue writing) or one of the admins (names in red writing) before you post. It is always better to be safe than sorry, and as you have discovered people are often illogical. What is of course always acceptable is to give a different opinion. This would be a very boring place if we all thought the same way.
I have had a look at some of your home page and am looking forward to getting to know you better.
