That is your position that I rebutted. Now defend it. You call yourself a parent, but you argue like a child. You won't defend your position, you merely assume that I don't have children and therefore can't understand children. Obviously, good doctor, any doctorate you hold cannot be in a scientific field. Your debating skills are laughable. I don't want to hear again how I am unqualified to understand children, you don't know my qualifications, I want to hear your defense of the above assertions in light of the rebuttal I have given. Anything less is diversion and distraction. Now, do you have the intellectual ability to do so, or are you going to continue to disqualify me based upon assumption?
Aquanisfan, we agree about a lot, a whole lot, but we disagree about this issue. I respect your position and respect your ability to rationally discuss it. This is the type of "defense" of your position though that I have repeatedly stood up against. Please understand why so many get frustrated about this issue from my side. It is the lack of any ability to do anything but say "I'm right, you're wrong, and you are unqualified to speak about it."
OWK, we disagree on a lot, a whole lot, we even disagree a bit on this issue. I implore you however, to take note that Aquanisfan does indeed defend his position and stick to the topics raised during rebuttal. He does not run on a tangent nor try to disqualify anybody from discourse. With the movies coming out in the next few days, I see a pick up in these threads. Let us all agree that we will conduct ourselves in good faith towards defending what we believe and in furthering thought upon this issue.
You're not one of those types, and I don't consider myself one of those types, but you have to admit that the pro-Harry side certainly does its share of religion (i.e. Christain) baiting. You can form your own judgement regarding which side is worse.
