When I called tiger lilly on this his response was just to stop quoting, and kept on.
Another 'quoter' I'll call him 'the beat' also did what tiger lilly did. However, when I responded he would not participate or acknoweledge my response. He would typically make a reference to some victory he claimed in the past and then try and draw paralells between what ever he was talking about currently with what he or I did/didn't do earlier in the thread or even months or years back with absolutly Nothing to substaintiae his claim..
I ask you how is this not absolutle intelectual laziness, steeped in logical fallacy?' But, hey their crap was spell right.. I guess when such importance is placed of things like spelling and grammar things like content cease to matter.

Besides, didn't you do that just a couple of posts earlier? I mean this:

Bolding mine.
Quote:You just said right there what we believe.
In nearly 50 pages of dialog in just this one thread, you honestly don't think I have not covered my beliefs ad nasuim? Or is it your belief that if say 'the beat' or tiger lilly wants to asked me 10 times a day what i believe i am obligated to answer each time?
Arguementium Ad nausium is a logicall fallacy tactic the 'the beat' frequently employs. He will ask the same question 10 15 or as many times as it takes ignoring what has been said 19 time for that 20th time when you don't answer him. they call you character into question for not answering him on his terms or say because you can't answer.. bla bla bla..
For guys like this "trolls" they are not looking for answers they are looking to manuver and employ tactics to claim whatever they wanted to say to begin with. So why do I play along? for those who may have that question they are pretending to have but do not want to ask it for whatever reason.
OK.
First off, I understand not wanting to call anyone out, but by doing that you just repeated your assertion that no one is addressing your points without providing evidence. You just repeated that we are using the strawman fallacy without pointing out where it was used.
Second, I don't see how anyone here is intellectually lazy, since most of us are actually trying to understand your points and make our own. We would be intellectually lazy if we just took everything we heard for granted, in which case we would not be having this discussion.
Third, I see you're still holding a grudge for the spelling thing. Like many people pointed out, we have given you our arguments, which you then ignored and repeated your earlier assertions. In that situation there is little to do but point out the spelling mistakes. It's not a personal attack, the mistakes make your posts less clear. And being on the topic, you could at least admit to some of them, which you didn't.
And, just like the spelling, your formatting is making your posts very hard to read. Please fix it.
