Sorry dude, that's not enough of a counter argument to eternity's evidence that separating content from presentation is A Good Thing.

Haha it wasn't a counter argument (as I tend to agree with you), it was commentary about what happens over and over again: two opposite sides arguing with no one changing their minds.

Your apology is accepted anyway - Merry Christmas :).

Actually I'm not against CSS constructs. I'll use them when they're convenient. The problem is that saying this to CSS zealots is like saying to the ancient Hebrews that one will worship Yahweh along with all the other gods.

CSS is pretty much universally a superior way to manage your page styling, which is why us "CSS Zealots" have that attitude.

Oh dear god, see what you've done pg? Now he's going to blow a trumpet and the hordes will be coming over the hills any minute now.

We better take this vanguard out before the larger group notices. Move quickly.

What makes me think one ought to be able to style your websites however one wants?

People can choose to style their pages however they please.

Those are not the same?
