Hey, Lenny, you've repeated yourself multiple times does this mean that by Louis' definition you win? ?Oh, no, that's right, you did it in less than 1000 words. ?Sorry, you still lose Lenny. ?:D

Skeptic,

Have I claimed this or anything like it?

No.

Is this a competition where winning or losing applies?

No.

Have you a) supported your own claims or b) dealt with any argument I have actually made?

No.

Please try, I know it's hard for you, to understand that you and Lenny are not dealing with my arguments as they are stated. Please try to understand, and I know this is really hard for you, that this is YOUR responsibility. I have, repeatedly, made what I am saying very very clear, everyone but you and Lenny seems (at least to some degree) to understand. I don't say if they agree or not, but they DO understand.

I cannot go back and read what I have written for you. I cannot come around to your house and in a series of tutorials explain basic reasoning to you. All I can ask is that you read and deal with my arguments honestly and with some degree of intellectual ability.

Thus far neither you nor Lenny is doing this. That is why I am frustrated by this farce and that is why the thread has descended into farce.

If anyone, even you Skeptic, repeatedly said to me that I had utterly misunderstood their arguments in a discussion I would AT LEAST go back and read them again. If someone said that I had utterly failed to deal with any aspect of their arguments I would AT LEAST go back and try to restate them to their satisfaction. The reason I would do this is because I care about having a productive concersation.

So please, please, PLEASE try to do this. You will be amazed at  how different the subsequent conversation is.

Louis
