So it looks to you as if I "have no argument"--even with all my argumentative articles out there? That's dumb.

I'm reacting to your comments by stating facts. They are in fact full of fallacies. I don't have to take the time to demonstrate this in detail because the fallacies are obvious and because we've been through all this before. It's just self-evident, for example, that your comments ignore the articles and go ad hominem (to the author), becoming personal attacks.

When will I finally know myself? That's a pretentious, presumptuous question. Far from showing that you know yourself to some enlightened degree, you seem to me resentful that you haven't changed my mind more on the topics we've discussed over the last few years. And this resentment boils over in these personal attacks of yours. It's unbecoming and it doesn't get under my skin. It's just part of the cost of putting ideas out there on the internet.
