      “I have a huge sample size but I’m not even going to say how large” is not an appropriate response.

          All kinds of people are confident despite being very wrong. Confidence is not a substitute for evidence. Neither is insulting people.

              Does it? You insulted me by calling me willfully ignorant. I didn’t insult you or make it personal at all, so that sounds like it applies to your responses, not mine. And how is insulting me appropriate when you claim all of your responses are appropriate when I did not do you the same discourtesy?

                  What are you even talking about now? I didn’t say anything about the mind body interaction. I didn’t bring it up or discuss it. How is that me being willfully ignorant?

                  I meant if you want to talk about ignorance, you seem to be totally ignorant of what I’ve said to you so far since you think it involves something I never even mentioned.
