[QUOTE="pitabread, post: 74852322, member: 394892"] I've had discussions with him in the past about the false equivalence fallacy. He seems to grasp it using other examples, but the blinders go on when it comes to his own arguments. I'm wondering if it's a language issue. Since English isn't his first language, perhaps he's simply being overly literal with English words? Perhaps the concept of English words varying meaning in different contexts isn't something which is native to him? I'd like to believe there is some other disconnect here other than just being too stubborn to give up on a terrible argument. (Although he does keep referring people to his self-replicating watch thread, so maybe he is just being stubborn.) [/QUOTE]
