No offence, I am glad that you are but perhaps you should turn the debate inwards. Personally since I am not as skilled in logical debate as you are, articles like this help me because they highlight perspectives I might not have necessarily considered. @realkadampa “I am skilled in logical debate” is that not an arrogant statement?

This just makes it look like you are angry and closed-minded. You yourself actually perpetuate the cycle by coming across in this way. It's arrogant. I am skilled in logical debate but find lateral thinking far more effective in helping situations. Big deal. I love the NKT but articles like this just makes things worse. Honestly, look at your approach and see how you can instead of 'defending the position' actually make it open-minded. The idea is not to refute someone else’s view the way in which you are doing.
