So you're saying it is wrong of me to assume that a Damage Dealer (one who takes every possible opportunity to point out his gear score, thus proving that he REALLY cares about numbers and would probably take any advantage to increase his DPS by even the smallest amount) is more likely to make a simple lapse of judgement with regards to keeping the group alive than the healer (who's sole purpose in the instance is insuring that people stay alive by standing back and assessing the situation)? Ya, I guess common sense is overrated...

Thank you for proving my point; But I think it is pretty safe to say that in a dungeon, keeping the group from wiping is more important than a 1 second delay on your DPS. Also, it is not bothering me in the least. I am quite enjoying myself, actually. But, as it stands, there are only TWO possible scenarios for the OPs situation:
1. He was standing too close; the priest's Life Grip saved the group, made him look like a fool and he felt it was necessary to rage post on these forums, hoping to get a few people to sympathize.
OR
2. The priest was wrong and the OP was standing at a safe distance, with zero risk of pulling; The priest lost a 3 minute CD, trolled his group (wasting 5 seconds of their time in the process), and made himself look like a fool. The DPS who was pulled decided to make a post about this harmless incident.
So, either way, this thread was an overreaction and nothing more.
