"my contention was that you, declared that one could not "penetrate the mysteries of reality" by studying one religious tradition... thats bullshit is all I was saying - and I am correct."
"all I was saying - and I am correct"
Have you ever seen or heard a more precisely "fiat" argument than that?
This is what you sound like:
'I'm right because I said so and I'm not going to even look at your evidence supporting your claims because I've already dismissed them and my ego prefers to engage in the sunk cost fallacy rather than do opposition research as that might cause me to have to rethink everything and betray my past communications as intellectually dishonest and premature. Because I'm a weak person, I fear taking the reputation hit from my social circles for flipflopping on any issue so rather than act with integrity, I only know how to double down on my preconceived belief set.'
Arrogant, much?
Do you have any idea how flexible my mind has had to be in order to reach the level of understanding I have?
Understand this, little boy. People follow me because MY research is compelling. The only reason people follow people like you is to get exposure to periodic confirmation biased regurgitations of other people's research. You are unoriginal. You are a beta cuck. You're not on my level. Get the fuck off my lawn.
