[ QUOTE ]
In essence, the strawman attack is putting words in your opponent's mouth and then attacking the resulting position, while simultaenously evading the real argument. [/ QUOTE ] Not entirely the province of any one side of any disagreement/point of view. As has been pointed out in this forum more than a few times. Was that the intent of your post? Since you picked the link you did, I have to wonder if it was merely an example. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] |
