First of all I didn't argue the person as such but her conduct, that's different. I didn't call her a liar but I wrote I don't like to be lied to.
Debate can be nuanced and complex, consisting of far more than just facts and arguments. If your goal is an admission of error then it is not enough to simply bombard your opponent with facts and arguments. You must coordinate your resources into a strategy that brings about in your opponent an admission of error, something Faith has done many times, including in this very thread ..... So use your facts and arguments to maneover Faith into admissions of error. It's a much bigger challenge than merely demonstrating to yourself and those who already agree with you that you're right.
My goal is not an admission of error as such but I was challenging her position and ASKED her to back it up and also to just answer dozens of more substantial questions.
She just won't. Just like that.
She also dictates the terms of debate: if Faith does not want to address E. coli experiments, it won't happen then. If she decides that there is no evidence, as she did on several occasions, you van provide her tons of evidence - it just will be evaded. She even then writes "I addressed this on several occasions". So now and then it is getting surrealistic. Basically she just excludes everything that she can't address and that threatens her positions, thus narrowing the topic in a way she can go on for another two years to mock about people not understanding her.
I already asked you twice if it's normal here in this forum just to evade and dodge.
You encouraged Faith to engage the debate and the points put forward.
Well she didn't.
