   People often use terminology in idiosyncratic ways.  That doesn't make them   
   wrong.  I understand Carlo's frame of reference, and I accept it.  You   
   should do likewise.   
      
   Just for one example:   
   In some circles, unless it is a 4 footed mammal, it is not an "animal".   
      
   I assume Carlo's use of terminology is similar.

      To be evangelical is to spend every waking moment hovering around   
      two emotional states: fear and rage. Evangelicals are seriously the   
      angriest and most vicious bunch of self-pitying, constantly-moaning   
      whinybutts I've ever encountered.
