It's hard to work out quite what you are saying here, it's not entirely clear.
I was tired and did not bother explain myself properly.
I was playing the part of someone who was religious. They were talking about someone else of another faith who was an extremest and did like them, "That crack pot guy from region XXX is barmy!". They also however were admitting that there were some people of their own faith, however because they, them-self believed in the basic ideals they had some sympathy for the extremist of their faith. It's was only the extent to which they took the idea. For an example I used the idea of killing gays. Two people believing in the same idea but taking it to two different lengths. One who thought you should kill gays the other saying, "no it's a metaphor, we just mean discourage gays, killing is taking it to far", but yet believing in the same illogical ideas, but believing because they are placing a limit on there actions their ideas are somehow more valid than the extremest from their faith who places no limits on their actions.
Still not explained very well, but I really need to do voices and stuff to explain things better. Ideally a puppet show using my old socks. I have a favourite sock for each religion. You should see my Scientology sock. It's very dull.

Religious extremism is not the problem with religion, the problem with religion is religion, the extremists are the periphery, a distraction.
I was refereeing to government view and attitudes, excepting some times of extremism far more than an other form of extremism, because it's an extreme view of their faith.
That persons illogical thoughts taken to an extreme is bad but a second persons illogical thoughts taken to an extremes are more expectable. This is because I am a member of that persons group, or I know many people who are part of that group. I hold the same illogical idea but don't take them to the extreme, I can see the cut off point of my illogical ideas, I know where the limit lies, this person doesn't. We have to be realistic, for example you see obviously when God says we should kill Gays that's unrealistic, it's a metaphor, it's taking it too far, we should just discourage it as it's unnatural. but they have a point.

Why when thousands of people die in these awful tragedies does the forum just trundle along mostly without incident or comment but when a cyclist dies at a roundabout people pour their hearts out in shock and disbelief?
Not a criticism BTW, I just don't get it.
Earthquake = natural disaster, good planning can reduce effects of it but can't be stopped.
Road accident = usually human incompetence can be stopped / minsimised.

I am lost for words.
I thought I was reading a script for an old Simpsons episode for while.

OTP Specialized Sirrus' sport is an obvious option.
Sirrus has a long head tube, quite sit up and beg, might be what you want but might not. Not a fan personally. Ridge back flight Ti is quite nice for a off the self bike.
The problem with buying an old bike designed for drop bars and putting flats or risers on it and expect it to be comfy for long rides is that frames designed for drops have shorter top tubes than those designed for flat bars. g
