We have something in common then - we are both atheists.Personally I would use regardless rather than the neologism "irregardless". However, if Phiphidon is to be criticised for use of external sources such as the Guardian then your use of a biblical source and other foreign news sources must be equally deserving of criticism.

pastitche Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Of course it isn't so why did you use it? While you're thinking about that can you tell me why the Strait Times is a better news source than the Guardian?
Buchholz Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Of course it isn't so why did you use it? You're really hung up about this, eh?
