You guys or rather you specifically tend to lead with your strongest bit-o-evidence. (which maybe why you are so caught off gaurd when I lead with truth, but maybe not my best example of it.) When one is taught to think and do things the way you do, it may seem illogical to think or do things anyother way. The 'otherway' is what I specialize in.(November 27, 2013 at 4:07 pm)Drich Wrote: Or do you contend that your populatity points have nothing to do with your ablity to pander to the crowd, and is based on something else like gender or looks?

Positive (+1): Knowledgable and friendly. And an able debater.
I guess this means you have since changed your mind?
It has not. Do note, however, that competent logician or interpreter of texts is nowhere implied there. Once again, your swiss cheese for brains fails you in logic.
You are fairly knowledgable about what you have chosen to make your own. You are generally friendly excepting when, as now, your faults are revealed, and then you turn ugly, tu quoque'ish, and egotistical. You remain a capable and able debater.
The reason I bare no malice or ill will towards you for bring up my 'weaknesses' is because the simple preception of weakness by an opponet is not a weakness at all. It can be an asset if one is inclined to use it as such. So truthfully if you feel the need to seed your peers minds with the Idea that I am anything less that what I am, then by all means continue on.
Because if I seem more approachable even through what you have identified as faulty logic, then perhaps a question get asked, or a principle get challenged, or a doctrine gets discussed that would not have been discussed otherwise. And the true cost? just alittle pride. I think that is a fair deal.
