"Mistake number 3 (childish gambit) is claiming I am building straw men as a response to me objecting to such tactics" Earth to _less, I wasn't the one putting words in someone else's mouth. You were. As I showed. But, let's do this again. You posted Your first mistake (childish gambit) is trying to define my position for me. Has anyone ever accused you of creating strawmen before even opening a discussion, if not let me be the first. Message 26019411 I never did this. I just chose an issue and assigned sides. Your insistence that I did something elseshows how little you regard the truth. "So far all I am seeing is communication blockades being thrown up. " Right, right. You want to take your toys and go home. "No. It is your mistake number 5 (childish gambit) to accuse me of denying something that I’ve asserted and already reaffirmed" Looks like you lost count. Sigh. Look, you claimed you didn't make a statement. I showed that you did. And now, through selective editing, you are pretending that I am doing something else. Which is most certainly your MO. I could continue this point by point comparison, but life is short. Suffice it to say that in your zeal to prove me wrong you have thrown up straw men, trotted out red herring and a whole zoo full of intellectually dishonest arguments. Not to mention selectively edited and outright lied about what I have posted. In other words, you have just proved my point. Again. So, far from logical, reasoned arguments, you twist, turn and distort. You pontificate on minutia and piously defend yourself by claiming that I am the one making the poorly constructed arguments. In other words, you don't craft reasoned arguments, you weasel around and accuse your opponent of doing so. What a waste of electrons you are. And yes, that is an ad hom. attack. I am just tired of your bullshit. If you want to have a rational discussion, fine. If you want to play word games, do it with someone else.
