I'm not making excuses for Eben. I don't even know of any facts to excuse. I have seen allegations that seem quite damning, but I try not to go about destroying people's lives over unproven allegations. I shall look into them first.

but I did see reason to congratulate you on your apparent change of heart, but your response makes me wonder whether I read too much into it and was too optimistic. perhaps you could be explicit on whether or not you now criticize your own past abusive, hateful and dehumanizing behavior?
