Because arguments aren't fair. If you make a point that refutes
something someone says, they can always say that wasn't actually what
they said. Or they can take one thing out of your statement and
provide what they think is a counter-example, and then use that to
think they've refuted everything
Why is it that when I make a good solid argument it somehow becomes
pointless... and then the reason isn't even backed up with anything
else that is solid? It's like the decision was made long ago, and
when the logic is at point blank range it still isn't acknowledged.
There are a bunch of
