[QUOTE="Benny420, post: 958744, member: 6192"] you are right, it makes little difference. Especially on a message board which attracts the attention of 50 to 70 people at any given time. But if one is authentic and wishes to engage in spirited debate on a matter which will affect the lives of some 350 million people and the world by extension, would it not stand to reason that ad hominems shouldn't even be a method of last resort when the facts simply cannot sustain the argument? Now I challenge you to peer into my limited posting history and you tell me where the ad hominems started. I was attempting to engage in facts based discourse and as soon as I hit these peoples with facts they simply could not refute the ad hominems started. not surprisingly, that's the standard playbook for people afflicted with their limited ability. But now that I've relented and decided to meet them on their same low ground they are weeping as it is some how my fault I am better at any way they wish to play this game. I am 100% committed to healthy debate if they can keep their helmets fastened properly and contain their natural inclination towards stupidity. [/QUOTE]
