Behaving how?

How have I misrepresented your position?

Funny how you NEVER answer any of my questions. Such intellectual dishonesty.

[ExponentialImpact]

Are you denying that you have been misrepresenting my position for going on a week? Really? It's had only been a few minutes and you are already in denial? Brajam, I say this from a place of compassion: You need to seek some counseling for the pleuthora of issues you are dealing with. Being on Youtube behaving the way you do, is not going to resolve anything. Please seek help for your sake?

[brajamtho757]

As well as your deceit. You called me a liar. I have not lied, thus you are the liar for stating otherwise. Unless you can point out the lie.

I challenge you directly. What was the lie?

[brajamtho757]

Then what is it?

You still can't refute a single thing I've said. All you do is make baseless claims of zealotry, sensationalism, with NO evidence.

You accuse me of irrationality but can't point out a single instance of irrational on my part and what makes it irrational.

Point 2 is wrong.

It should be provide evidence and/or a reason. Reason is a kind of soft evidence.

[brajamtho757]

As is yours. Takes quite the irrationality to be in denial about what's in the dictionary.

[Oliver W]

I only discovered Hitchens after he died, so it's odd, I only see him through a screen, it's like a ghost that will always remain awesome, if you get what I'm saying...

[ExponentialImpact]

Your ineptitude is awe inspiring.

[ExponentialImpact]

Incorrect. This is a significant point of contetion I have with you. I have said it to you a total of 6 times in the month and a half since we met. You are a zealot. You do not accept new information. I support rational debates based on a process laid out by people smarter than us. 1. make a point. 2. Provide evidence for that point 3. Evaluate the point after scrutiny. 4. Stay with initial point or remake it.

You on the other hand, do not.

[brajamtho757]

Did just now.

[brajamtho757]

You're against it.

However you deny that it causes significant harm, which is completely irrational.

And you deny that it is assault, and mutilation, despite the fact that the dictionary definitions fit perfectly. Also completely irrational.
