Quote:How does a Stephen Fry quote make padraic a hypocrite?
It doesn't. The argument is tu quoque AND hypocrisy is part of the human condition. I have never claimed to be free of any human fault.
Please tell me it wasn't the Rev. Catfish who called me a hypocrite. If he did, I just couldn't live with myself and would have to throw myself under a very obese woman.
Knock old sock,you may call me "Pad"

This for the edification of the bottom-feeding fish.
Quote:Tu quoque (play /tuːˈkwoʊkwiː/),[1] (Latin for "you, too" or "you, also") or the appeal to hypocrisy, is a logical fallacy that attempts to discredit the opponent's position by asserting the opponent's failure to act consistently in accordance with that position; it attempts to show that a criticism or objection applies equally to the person making it. This dismisses someone's point of view based on criticism of the person's inconsistency, and not the position presented.[2] Thus, it is a form of the ad hominem argument.[3]
