> are ridiculous > It’s absurd This isn't the first time you've used words that insult the intellect of someone who holds an opinion you merely disagree with. You fail to address the specific points that others have made, instead choosing to tar their whole argument as "ridiculous" and "absurd". If it were either of those things, you wouldn't have to say so. It doesn't further the conversation and strikes me as little more than a re-iteration of previous assertions.
