Avoid lengthy cut-n-pastes. Introduce the point in your own words and provide a link to your source as a reference.
A good deal of your reply is cut/paste from ReMine's article, which can be found
here.
The Haldane's dilemma debate can often get quite complicated. I'd feel more comfortable knowing that those that take a definitive position on it have a good understanding of the topic, and is able to understand potential rebuttals to it. As such, I'd rather see you explain your position to your opponents in your own words, rather than copy/pasting what you think might be relevant sections of ReMine's work.
You may find that copy/pasting in this manner will mean you end up addressing a point different than that your opponent was making.
Its not just the post I'm replying to:
Message 6 is also a large copy/paste. Many people have read ReMine's work, and if they haven't they are free to read it at their leisure. What we are interested is NJs argument and debate.
No moderator action taking place here, I just have a feeling that this thread might get bogged down in a '
rule 4' debate, which nobody wants.
