I cannot reason with an unreasonable person. It can't be done.

I know the feeling.

You seem to have two terrible habits that prevent us from engaging in intelligent conversation:

1. Oversimplifying complicated explanations. I'm not sure if you do this because you don't fully understand the point being made or if it is because you don't take the time to truly think about it before responding. Regardless, your simplifications result in a loss of accuracy, and that changes the course of the discussion.

2. Jumping to conclusions. You make assumptions about what a person is going to say before they say it. Most of the time, these assumptions are incorrect due to point #1. Again, I'm not sure if you don't really understand what is being discussed or if you just do this because you are trying to be irritating. Either way, if makes intelligent conversation impossible.

This is what I meant about being unable to reason with an unreasonable person.

Let the reader judge who is being unreasonable in this thread.
