"I wonder, if we were to accept the article's findings as true (for the sake of argument) if that would falsify the proposition...blah, blah, blah"

Yeah jeremiah, if the sky were pink with yellow polka-dots...how would you argue that it is blue? Of course...'only for arguments sake'. What a sophomoric attempt at debate.

Unrealistic questions are a waste of time and bandwidth. Can you say disrupter??

I'd say the real question of this thread is how does one disengage a communist fool who asks nonsensical questions without looking like she is the last one standing on the thread? My guess would be for us all to leave at once and let the sounds of the crickets be her company. I for one am leaving.

There are many lurkers around this joint, and they are learning a tremendous amount if they are fairminded men and women of goodwill.

Those who have the facts on their side have nothing to fear from debate. In this case, the truth is shining through very brightly.
