I read the link that the starter of this post gave, and I'm very 
confused by Yigal's comments/response.

Yigal, could you please explicitly explain what you mean?
What about the text in the link did you find inappropriate?

I myself disagree with the conclusion(s) present on the link, but I fail 
to see how it was inappropriate.
So please fully explain.

"He who makes a mistake is still our friend; he who adds to or shortens 
a melody is still our friend; but he who violates a rhythm unawares can 
no longer be our friend."
-Ishaq Ibn Ibrahim 767-850 CE.

"If you don't behave as you believe, you will end by believing as you 
behave."
-Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen

"The difference between the intelligent man and the simpleton is not the 
correctness of their decisions, but rather the cunning sinner can more 
skillfully defend and justify his iniquity."
- Rabbi Tovia Singer
