Anyone who says, "Trust me! I have all the correct answers" (or in your case, Tom; I know all the statistics), that is a person who has no real evidence or insight into the matter. They have only their opinion, which they relentlessly defend regardless of how erroneous.

The points you attempt to make, Tom, are supported by the opinions of a non-thinking person. In addition to “Trust me! I have all the answers”, I also see, “Statistics prove this” without citing any real statistics other than your own. Then there is the, “Everybody knows that is true” argument, which is just as silly. Any of these attempts to garner some sort of credibility in a court of law would be laughed right out of court. I’m surprised you haven’t used, “It must be true because my mother said so!” 😊))

One element emerges above all your blabbering, Tom, and that is the absence of logic. Intelligent people subjectively observe events, evaluate data and then draw reasonable conclusions. That process does not appear in your posts. Your original question has been repeatedly answered, over and over again, in almost every possible variation; however, you continue to repeat the question while insulting those with whose answer you disagree, while mocking sensible people with admirable ethical values that you yourself do not possess. With all the opinions, I see you making no intellectual progress in resolving the question you originally posed. You simply ignore good responses and revel in the fact you haven’t learned a thing.

I have observed in young children, deprived of love and proper nurturing in their childhoods, often became desperate for attention; so desperate they would accept negative attention acquired through poor behavior. I cannot begin to count the number of retorts and snippy comments you have posted here, Tom. Regardless of how many profound and wise answers smart people have given you, you keep repeating the same question as you happily run around the room laughing hysterically. Tom, no one here believes you are here for an answer of any type, but it does appear you are enjoying the attention. )
