Admirable. Holding to the topic being discussed rather than chasing after issues that have no actual connection to it, other than in one's own mind, is rare in debate.
Of course, your restraint would have been more impressive had terriergal's actual comment been about intelligence rather than education. I would expect an evolution proponent to understand the difference; it does bear rather directly on the idea of natural selection.

Well I was under the assumption that she was trying to equate iintelligence with education, when in reality education has no real bearing on intelligence. I may be 'well' educated but that does not make me smart nor intelligent. My father is one of the most intelligent people I know and he never finished high school. Thanks for the compliment!
