Ontological Disproof of God

[Angrboda]

Troll or tard, it makes no difference.  It's the same behavior.  I generally ignore issues of trolling, except when I choose to counter-troll, which can be a lot of fun.

So why do you talk to LR so much? I couldn't do what you do... I can't see the point in arguing with those insane arguments.

I generally ignore issues of trolling and play it straight, was my meaning. I couldn't tell you why I spend so much time arguing with Little Rik. Maybe it's the low hanging fruit. Maybe it's just the audacity of his beliefs and attitude. I think it's natural to want to take someone displaying hubris down a notch or two, though I don't think that's it either. Though that might motivate me to expend more effort on such people. I like to argue, and so I don't generally hesitate to argue with a Drich or a Little Rik. I also argue with more sophisticated opponents like Steve or Neo, though there may be less opportunity to do so because I will, as a result of the better quality of their arguments, less often have a good argument to prosecute against them. So, ultimately it's probably simply a matter of me attacking bad arguments, regardless of their source. And for what it's worth, I don't see Little Rik's arguments or beliefs as insane. They're rationally constructed, I can understand the logic, and his worldview is coherent. What I see are errors in his reasoning, rather than pure lunacy. I'll argue with people whose arguments are coherent but flawed. I don't think Little Rik is incoherent, though others may disagree.
