ABEL: Perhaps it is I, but since you asked for examples I will provide a few.

dhw: "Abel, I’m struggling to find any coherence in your history of Planets X and Earth. (3 Nov 11 15:21)" This is not derisive but true, and I’ve consistently pointed out what I consider to be the inconsistencies.

The whole point of this example was to point out how brains make mistakes. Somehow in just "patching" what I wrote, you left out a sentence which gave my message important meaning. What I wrote was, "Perhaps it is I, but since you asked for examples I will provide a few. I will color those words that might be considered derisive." This was important to include for a couple of reasons. The first it would have saved you from responding to those portions of your statements that I did not consider derisive. The second, it would have shown other readers that the color content was added to clarify the point that I was making, not just to annoy them with bright colors.

I consider it derisive to tell a man that has presented a theory whose components are basically the same as those used by many others, that his argument lacks "any coherence". I could be typing random letters and words and that would lack any coherence. And even if you did believe what you wrote was true, would you also call fat women fat, ugly people ugly and stupid people stupid because it is also true? Just how polite of an Englishman are you? And what do Englishmen call derision?

I could also address every other point that you made, but I am done here. I have my perceptions and you have yours as does everyone else who has read our posts.
