As I said, I am quite content to be in the same company as Gedanken and AF, both of whom reasoned the same way I did in that thread. Readers can draw their own conclusions as to who was using "faulty reasoning", the three of us ... or you.
With those words you manifest the disposition of a child. I could care less about the numbers agreeing with what is said (i.e., the three of us ... or you.). I could care less about whether my traditional supporters agree with me. It appears that both are somehow relevant to the issue for you, but they are not. Only the insecure draw or make distinctions from such.
I am content that my words are examined carefully by anyone, whether they agree with them or not. If they disagree I will listen and respond. Even now I contend that simple answers from you to those simple questions asked would resolve the issue of the supposed “serious mistake”, and I think you realize that too. But, alas, I do not think those answers will be forthcoming, at least with defense.
It is a pity that you leave your notions accusing me of ad hominem undefended. With that note I agree, we have little if anything to discuss. I have little tolerance for those willing to accuse but not defend. It is evident that you are clueless about that constituting ad hominem. And, in my opinion, that is but a microcosm of greater things.
