While I may have been a little too over the top on this one (I also wanted really to see how B.B. and others would react), I keep my opinion that there are some here who will never ever admit that someone else who does not agree with them could actually be right.
This goes for people across the spectrum, on the far left as well as on the far right.

I think it is hilarious that the people who agreed with your first post are villified.
Good for EB if he responded with humility. But surface humility does not mean that someone acknowledges the other side of an issue. It just means that one is wise enough to know that a response would just open themselves up to too much scrutiny of their issues and beliefs.
Humility does not trump truth.
