How about “for those of us who actually think”? Is that not an ad hominem in suggesting that I do not do any actual thinking?
Not only do I do “actual” thinking, I do “actual” calculations; both my thinking and calculations show that Geocentricism is bunk and that nobody can propose a force necessary and sufficient to drag the Sun around the Earth while leaving the Earth motionless.
I was not referring to you at all, rather to the audience of the debate. Ad hominem attacks work best for those that do not carefully weigh and evaluate the assertions and argumentsmade by the various parties, but rather choose the side that does a better job demeaning their opponent. Please reconsider my post in this context. I could assert that you possess poor reading comprehension, or that you jump to conclusions. However, reality is we simply miscommunicated, and I did not explicitly, contextually establish myself (and others, "us") as an observer of the debate.
Would you care to re-read the post, and attack to propositions contained therein?
