So because 'they' are all being lame-arse wieners (or rather some of them are if we're going to be correct about it), you have to be a lame-arse wiener as well? An interesting logical sequence. I say that their 'us v them' mentality is all the more reason not to take that route. It is the Al-Qaeda trap. Nothing suits them more than the 'us v them' mentality. Nothing suits the cause of long-term peace less.
'If we take in our hand any volume; of divinity or school metaphysics, for instance; let us ask,
Does it contain any abstract reasoning concerning quantity or number? No.
Does it contain any experimental reasoning, concerning matterof fact and existence? No. Commit it then to the flames: for it contains nothing but sophistry and illusion.'
