Apparently you missed the ""no response is needed"" above.
There was not a drop of ""pretentiousness"" in my comment.  I didn't ""start drama:"" ""drama"" ""started"" when you showed up on my talk page and presumed to instruct me in a brusque and arrogant manner as to what talk pages are foras though I were some noob and you the wise and experienced Wikipedianand what my tone should be like.  You are correct above where you say that ""talk pages are for discussing how to improve the article,"" but I didn't see you telling that to Santamoly.  If you jump on anyone who uses a talk page for anything less pure than ""discussing how to improve the article,"" you're going to be a very busy bee indeed, and probably to little effect.
I wasn't ""offended"" because Santamoly disrespected my religion (Voudon isn't my religion), I was appalled and disgusted (see my original reply to you) at her/his provincial and outdated attitude toward a perfectly legitimate religion, and made my point firmly.  I admitted to you that I could have been less snarky, but that wouldn't do.
Apparently, people only have a ""proper sense of judgement"" when they agree with you?  You're not ""discouraged from pointing out attacks or incivility,"" you're discouraged from doing so in a pompous and arrogant manner which exacerbates rather than resolves.  As I said, if you had courteously suggested that I was out of line, you might have received a ""thanks for the reminder"" from me.  In fact, despite your pompous attitude, I was nevertheless ""receptive"" enough to offer the concession that some of my remarks could have been better phrased, but that wasn't good enough for you: no, you charged onto my Talk page to slap me down.  When I declined to cower, you went looking for bigger kids to beat me up, only to find that they were disinclined to do so. 
Perhaps when you've been around Wikipedia for a while, you'll have a better grasp of how things happen around here.  Or maybe not.  Either way, if you don't like my attitude you're welcome to stop reading my Talk page any time.  There's clearly no way I'm going to get through to you that I'm not the only one who was out of line here.
