Could you respond the the person who made these arguments, instead of posting your response to his arguments here? It seems kind of silly to argue with him without actually arguing with him. Using us as a proxy instead if just manning up and arguing with the person you disagree with is pretty lame. And exhausting. Just sayin'.
