It is also possible that I am an outlier in this regard (most sane people...) or that I haven't reached the point where I am sick of playing the game (sooner or later). It is further possible that what I mean by "this game" is the game of arguing about the validity of the UDA (and please spare me from your usual jokes where you go to wikipedia looking for meaning of the acronym. Yes yes it's super funny). This is your usual modus operandi and I am sick of it. I say modus operandi because, judging from certain contributions you made to this mailing list it is quite clear that you do not have the limited intelligence required to honestly make such mistakes. That would be forgivable, but here, and more importantly as you do when discussing Bruno's theories, you argue in bad faith. Finally, yes it could be that I am not sane. Unlike you, I consider this possibility. The fact that you do not consider it is precisely what makes you a religious fundamentalist. Just because your religion has no name, doesn't mean that it does not exist. I'll spare you the trouble and paste you usual bromide. Here you go: "Wow, calling a guy known for disliking religion religious, never heard that one before, at least I never heard it before I was 12." This is precisely the sort of manipulative bullshit that religious people use. The implicit appeal to common sense. The suggestion that your opponent is childish. Anything but directly addressing the ideas of your interlocutor. You argue in bad faith, you destroy honest discussion to score internet points and you bully people that were nothing but nice to you.
