This guy is worried about improperly accusing his opponents of logical fallacies and respecting their opinions, while the other side brings feces in jars to throw in protest.

Doesn’t seem like there is any potential for a meeting of the minds

I guess it depends on how committed one is to upholding truth. Yes, on the edges, there ARE people with totally corrupt minds.

On account of The Fall, ALL minds are corrupted to some extent. The first task is to recognize and deal with, as best I can, the corruption of my own mind. Then, I may be equipped to recognize and deal with the corruption of others' minds.

This goes beyond logical fallacy, but still is important to recognize.

I want to understand your argument. Are you saying that just because something won’t work in a specific instance it should not be used in any instance, e.g. on this forum?

I had two people at those rallies who changed their minds on abortion. So yes, some aren’t open. But some people are.
