    I think that I'm reasonable.

    I'm not rich, but I don't owe 1 penny.

    I never buy something too cheap nor too expensive.

    I define "reasonable" as being willing to change my mind when presented with facts.

    I am very reasonable.

    I'm a stubborn jackass!!!

    Not really - I'm opinionated, but will listen to someone elses point of view, and may change my own standpoint if someone elses sounds more feasable than my own.

    I think that's resaonable.......

    Bull!

    Yeah, I'm usually right, though! I just have to convince others of my reasonable opinions!

    I'm can be stubborn in my opinions, but can usually be reasonable once I've had time to think the facts over. Sometimes it takes a bit of mulling on my part to clearly see anothers point of view without all the emotion of an argument.

    I rejected the false teachings, practices and doctrines of the Jehovah's Witnesses when I discovered the truth about them. Is that being reasonable or unreasonable?

    I draw a symantic distinction between being reasonable and being rational.

    I'm disassociating myself from the congregation. That is unreasonable. The reasons to not do it are immense. I'm being extremely unreasonable with myself in taking a stand.

    Power is a myth, and myths are powerful.
