Not at all, you have utterly misconstrued the arguments all along the way.

Your examples were nothing but a convoluted mess based on fallacies. I do
not have the time to completely untangle your mixed-up thinking, you must do
some of the work yourself.

If you would learn to listen, instead of playing devil's advocate on every
point to attempt to "score", you might get somewhere. Playing devil's
advocate is exactly as valid as agreeing with everything you read.

Thank you. Customs are taught and learned. They are not biological or
genetic. They are common and popular.

the work was done. All the was required was that you clarify why you
applied one standard to the vegan and another to yourself.

Listen? I'm reading your comments.

Where you consider me being Devil's Advocate, I consider you blindly
introjecting what is spoonfed.

You're reading but graspinf anything. I typically make a series of replies
in a post, most of which you breeze over because you are being corrected,
than you insert some non-sequitor knee-jerk remark at the end.

Your approach is WORTHLESS.

False, unlike you I do NOT blindly reject that which is "spoonfed" in favour
of irrational claptrap.

Dutch, others can read this as well as the fact the archives of this
discussion will be around for a bit of time.

I have clearly given you opportunities to clarify information which you
have posted and asked me to accept simply because it is common.

Your "opportunities to clarify" are nonsensical, they're poses. You're not
bright and you're proving it.

Astonish me then. Which point from the website that you asked me to read
should we review, publicly. Do you need to check with the clique before
you can respond?

You seemed to view it as credible and reputable, when you asked me more
than once to read it.

You are unavailable for processing incoming information, except to knee-jerk

How about this part..

Myth: No one has ever died from using marijuana
The Kaiser study also found that daily pot users have a 30% higher risk of
injuries, presumably from accidents. These figures are significant, though
not as high as comparable risks for heavy drinkers or tobacco addicts. That
pot can cause accidents is scarcely surprising, since marijuana has been
shown to degrade short-term memory, concentration, judgment, and
coordination at complex tasks including driving.(1) There have been numerous
reports of pot-related accidents --- some of them fatal, belying the
attractive myth that no one has ever died from marijuana. One survey of 1023
emergency room trauma patients in Baltimore found that fully 34.7% were
under the influence of marijuana, more even than alcohol (33.5%); half of
these (16.5%) used both pot and alcohol in combination.(2) This is perhaps
the most troublesome research ever reported about marijuana; as we shall
see, other accident studies have generally found pot to be less dangerous
than alcohol. Nonetheless, it is important to be informed on all sides of
the issue. Pot smokers should be aware that accidents are the number one
hazard of moderate pot use. In addition, of course, the psychoactive effects
of cannabis can have many other adverse effects on performance, school work,
and productivity.

Well? What is your complaint with the above paragraph? Surely it made that
knee jerk.

Do you advocate legal pot?
