continue ignoring the point if it makes you feel more comfortable and confident with your own position. pretty typical for this forum.



if they present their argument with corresponding evidence and/or proper logic, absolutely. and as long as people can maintain a fair amount of objectivity in discussion and exchange of ideas without letting their personal biases show, there's never a problem.

note that i never stated any preferences either way- i merely made qualitative statements with denotative language in reference to specific topics/situations. i care only about the principle of the matter, and in adhering to that principle i merely state what is and what isn't, and in in the event it's not so simple- in which situations it is and in which situations it isn't.

when a person takes up a position and fails to provide context outside of subjective personal experience (fallacious), without at least qualifying that their position comes from subjective personal experience and therefore should be taken as such- then no. it's impossible for them to oppose me without me demonstrating in what context they are categorically wrong.

notice how i never said they were wrong in any/every context. i provide the context for when they are, though, and if they can't acknowledge or accept that then i will be unrelenting in appealing back to the princple.
I'll take that as a "no" then....

Word of advice: when you take colloquial language out of the equation, make sure you proofread or you might open yourself up to some trolls.
