(1) This is becoming very ridiculous. What do the USA have to do with it ?

(2) Different nations have different languages, and a good rule of thumb when 
debating with someone of unknown linguistic origins is not to focus on the 
connotations you percieve to a single word you abstract from its context.

(3) Different intellectual communities have different values, in mine it is the 
rule not to make abstract claims if not ready to put them to experimental test - 
and it's less a matter of (passing or failing) tests than a matter of making 
clear the rule of translation between one's own abstract language and objective 
facts. And by these means, ultimately, to measure the divergence in languages.

(4) As concerns the matter of the case, you made broad and abstract claims while 
implicitely referring to some doctrine(s), and I concisely formulated the demand 
that you back them up with (according to you) observable facts. I note that 
instead you chose to articulate your doctrine while avoiding an occasion to 
probe its adequacy.

(5) I find your systematic enrollment of children to your cause quite 
inappropriate.
