The Buzsaw Delusion (With Apologies to Dawkins)
Just because one rigorously debates another view than yours and debates intensively on a minority POV, the one is considered by you as arrogant.
You have in no way debated vigorously. That you believe you have is one of the many delusions arising from your arrogance. You've ignored any point brought against you. You've refused to answer the simplest of questions. You don't know what evidence you argue against. You don't understand the ramifications of your own notion. You don't understand that ramifications are worthy of consideration. You mistake your idle notion for a "minority POV". Your arrogance leads you to believe that others think your notions radical. Radical is not the term that comes to mind; not on the first pass, and not on the tenth. You accuse thousands of the best among us of deception with the heel of your shoe. Then accuse them of arrogance. That is arrogance.

When I was young I loved everything about cigarettes: the smell, the taste, the feel . everything. Now that I’m older I’ve had a change of heart. Want to see the scar?
