I don't think so. There are mystics among the westerners (Perfecti), atheists among the pantheists (lunar materialists) and shamans among the Orlanthi and so forth. I thus think it more accurate to distinguish between the philosophies and the mode used by a practitioner of that philosophy.

In which I used your first name in the post, ie not the behaviour I was complaining about.

If it wasn't the first time it happened or only was the first time you've seen it happen on the subjectline, then how do you know I started the rot?

Mainly because patronizing people about how to prove theories based on a paragraph cribbed from Hawking's was not what I considered to be polite behaviour. Moreover posting at full speed while not even recognizing that the existance of some people were explaining why you were wrong was also inflammatory behaviour.
