think of it as "Doom" for intellectuals

Almost as if a desire to refute LOA brings more opportunities to refute LOA.
It is good to have this debate though... our own doubts draw these things to us of course. The degree we want to prove to others is the degree of doubt we have within ourselves.

doubt is a good thing. Certainty is bad. Certainty is a closed door and doubt is an open one. I want to refute fuzzy thinking and misunderstood science. Also I didn't see any skepticism and it's my personal chore to bring balance into the universe.
I saw only an echo chamber of the same ideas. There's nothing wrong with looking into a mirror all the time, but sometimes it's refreshing to look out a window.

For myself, I am still completely fascinated by the words "Bossy Boots" and I refuse to not be dying to use them in everyday conversation. The ony reason I re-clicked this thread is because of that term, and then I see it repeated at least 3 (three) times. Bossy Boots is being drawn into my awareness, along with polar bears.
Levity has ended. Resume debate.
