Well, after you wrote this:Jerry said:here you’re defending yourself as though I accused you if misrepresenting my post.
and this:Jerry said:The fact that you don't even realize how you took all of that out of context
it sure looks like you were accusing me of something-or-other.Jerry said:pointing out the 3 errors you made in that post {{#70}}
Next:
FALSE. Almost every time you make an abortion-topic-related statement, you are presenting a point of view, which can sometimes be called an "argument". And when that statement contains obvious errors or unsupported claims, anyone here is free to point them out.Jerry said:I refuse to engage your argument
In the present case, you have called a certain argument a "straw man". I have provided evidence that you are wrong. You refuse to admit it; you merely repeat the claim, without even offering any data as to why anyone should believe your claim. How can any Objective judge of this discussion do anything but conclude that you have failed to make a case? Deliberately not participating is the same thing as failing/losing.
