Re: Topic Focus
Greetings RAZD,
The first issue is not a point of contention really. Any idiot with a few years of basic schooling can see that the argument is flawed. The idea that I'm getting after reading all of the posts so far, is the second issue, your application of the syllogism. I instinctively can see that it is a strawman but am still collecting my ideas about exactly why.
{ABE}In posts 38 and 39, Rrhain has wrapped up any ambiguity I was having in a way I think would have never dawned upon me otherwise.
