   This kind of response is what you expect from the dogmatic only, and
   being dogmatic is a simple reason NOT to use logic.

   Your kind of flame is simply pathetic.

Sorry, but I completely fail to see what's so deep about your comment, I also fail
to see what it has to with " re-seeing silly paradoxes".

I thus consider my response to your flame as valid as ever before.
