I am awestruck by your ability to spew incoherent bullshit so readily...
An assertion is, by it's very nature, a premise that is unsupported by argument and/or evidence irrespective of whether or not it is true and explicitly irrespective of whether or not someone agrees that it is true.
What's your postal address? I'm going to send you my copy of "A Concise Introduction to Logic", you desperately need it.
To me as someone who doesn't hold the same rational [given] conclusions as you do, your assertions are without rational support: ie irrational. I don't assume that you are irrational, I consider your position to be rationally formed and endeavour to find the reasoning.
Therefore: a POV contrary to your own would indeed be merely an assertion for you to assess.
Sorry I don't see where your dispute lies.
