And then he has the nerve to say that other people (namely you) are acting "holier-than-though"? If there's one thing I can't stand it's a hypocrit. I can deal with just about anything else, but hypocracy makes my blood boil.

Since he's such a fan of logic, one might think he'd detest a hypocrite as much as you do. So I hear you. The fundamental argument he's making amidst all this ruckus is that he hasn't been wrong in this thread, and hence any argument in which he's been challenged is deemed illogical. That shows a refusal to even consider other viewpoints as valid. Someone who was open to discussion would just say well I disagree, and maybe explain why he disagrees. But by actually dismissing other viewpoints as "illogical" reeks of arrogance.
Opinions cannot be won or lost. They are discussed and debated. But (and this is a LOGICAL argument) opinions are by definition a personal thing. There is no right and wrong conclusion when an opinion is debated, only the own personal conclusions to be drawn on our own as individuals. To assume than any argument contrary to yours is invalid, illogical, and is a losing argument reeks of arrogance and disrespect for the thoughts of others.
