"Trolling and low-content posting will not be tolerated", right?
The problem is, as I see it, that ...
The former, as diplayed by Tom Bishop (stars are blue because they are blue) ...
Tends to provoke the latter, as displayed by everyone else (Tom Bishop is a stupid troll).
As the song goes: "You can't have one without the other".
If you knew the answer to "how we know" you wouldn't need to rattle around in your pram and link to irrelevant material and rely on ad hominin in an utterly obvious attempt to divert the issue.
Ad hominem (note spelling) - against the man ...
I think that there is always merit in weighing up the character of the people you meet in life.
(Even though from a pure debating point-of-view, and on an argument-to-argument basis it is strictly wrong.)
Nobody is going to vote for a politician who lies, cheats, presents false accounts, and welches on his manifesto promises after all.
If someone is repeatedly rude, devious, and stubbornly and pridefully refuses to admit when they are wrong ...
Then that person gains a reputation for untrustworthyness which reduces the trustworthyness of any of his future arguments.
So, for the record, I am retiring from this debating forum because I am sick and tired of your rude and childish behaviour, not because I have been defeated by your intellectual brilliance.
