Not trying to be condescending. I just don't feel like having this discussion when you approached it the way you did. If someone speaks to me like that in my daily life, I walk away from them, so I'm figuratively walking away from this.

We've had multiple conversations and I think you know I'm not the sort to make baseless claims; I stand by my beliefs on this issue. I read a couple of the studies on the list you linked and skimmed a couple more. I'm not being dismissive of your argument, I'm being dismissive of your manner. That's my right, I think. Sorry. Maybe next time.
