The fact that you say he has no argument or support for his claims is utterly ridiculous Spacemonkey. I realize you don't consider a careful description based on astute observation as good enough, even though he gives very convincing evidence for his claims. If you don't want to investigate the book any further, it's okay with me. You're off the hook.
You've done it again. I said that you had no evidence or arguments for your claim, and you've responded as if I said Lessans had no evidence or arguments for his claim. Which part of your brain broke to make you keep doing this?

If it is so ridiculous of me to say that he didn't adequately support his claims, then show me the arguments or support he provided for his listed presuppositions. We both know you can't do it.
