It may be noted, that Grandizers theory is testable. If I am trying to avoid discussion, then all one would have to do, is present questions or arguments concerning either to what I had said or present an case for what you think is more compelling. If he is correct, and I want to avoid logical and coherent objections, then it would follow that I would continue to do so. I will note , that mere disagreement is not avoidance. If however I don't have issue with interacting with other ideas, then it would seem that the seemingly self serving hypothesis would be false.
I do avoid some topics. I try to avoid topics that are largely subjective or a matter of opinion. I may avoid a topic, because I don't think the person will contribute anything of value or has a history of just attacking the person or name calling; rather than thoughtful discussion. However this is a topic I like.
By a show of hands, if I said that an elephant suddenly appeared in my back yard (like poof) without reason. How many would consider that plausible?
