366. You, a person who can't tell the difference between facts and feelings, are laughing at me?

I'll go you one better;




You've actually demonstrated that you are ignorant of those distinctions. That's the difference between you and I. I can cite examples, link to posts, and paste excerpts... but when I ask people like you to do the same to back up your insinuations about me, you go after my typos. :wtf:

When I deal with global warming deniers, I am also accused of exhibiting 'attitude in spades' because the people I'm dealing with can't get the concept; "Heat=Energy". Yes, when I deal with people so devoid of understanding, I often appear to them to have 'attitude in spades'.

Your attempt at derision in order to stymie me does you no good at all because I have those pesky little things like 'facts' and 'reason' on my side.

You know what the truly sad part is?

You haven't even bothered to try to understand what my point is, instead opting to assume I've said something that justifies your totally misplaced outrage.


I know that this concept is alien to you, but if you had decided to attempt reason and ask questions, you know... be
rational instead of leaping to attack, you, like others, could have understood my point and had a constructive discussion. But you have made your inability to do so a fact, and you have shown that your blind outrage will drive you into and right back out of an argument.

Because the enraged can't deal with the rational. And that is a terrible weakness I'm sorry to see. Plenty of others have put me on 'ignore' because they know that they cannot back up their accusations or justify their attacks. For them, it is easier to ignore me than to admit they cannot, drop the blind rage, and actually discuss a given issue rationally.

You may as well admit you cannot deal rationally either and do the same.
