Theland - // Also, the general tone sinks into cross examination mode rather than friendly discussion.
I am not responsible for that. //
I pointed out to you a few weeks ago that you absolutely are responsible, and as I expected, you have chosen to ignore my advice, as I knew you would.
It's this simple -
Naomi, whom I have discussed, debated, argued, fallen out with, and generally interacted with on this site for a number of years, retains my respect for her intelligence, willingness to fight her corner, and usual unflappability.
Until she debates with you - still with a level of patience that I admire, but even she is reduced to utter frustration by your approach, which is the same as your fellow 'fervents' on here - the unshakeable belief that you are absolutely right, and that anyone who fails to agree with you is simply too ignorant to understand.
Goodlife pondered yesterday why he comes on here, and frankly, I wonder what it is about you fervents that puts you on here day after day, asking questions to which there are no definitive answers, then 'answering' them yourselves, and then arguing with a maddening sense of superiority with absolutely anyone who questions you or takes an alternative view.
It cannot make you happy, or give a sense of enjoyment or satisfaction because it simply goes nowhere, and I offer you the same link I offered Goodlife - maybe you will think about it, but I am sure you won't - why stop the habit of a lifetime …
