$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('BigTex', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('yesplease', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('BigTex', 'I')f nothing else it will equip you to argue with MQ more effectively.
Pointing out that someone is incorrect is hardly argument. ;)


Have you read it?

If not, go read it. It won't hurt and might help.


I think this will be my new criteria. If you haven't read Overshoot: The Ecological Basis for Revolutionary Change by William Catton. I won't debate you on the issue.

What issue? So far all I've seen you do are make sweeping, sometimes incorrect statements, while at times providing incorrect information and/or incomplete information from your sources, one of which by your own admission is fallacious.

I also refuse to talk with anyone on the web-site unless they have also read Plato, Hume, Marx, Nietzsche, Sartre & are also seriously conversent with the core principles of the Tao Te Ching.

In other-words, anyone here that is worth arguing with will not even approach my depth of understanding on my specialist areas so you might as well give up now.

The rest of you are not worth talking to because you know nothing.
