I was simply clearing up your possibly bad impression of me. I didn't even refer back to the original argument. All I did was offer you criticism as to how you can improve your own rational discourse.

If you think the lemon/gold thing is a straw man, then you STILL don't understand what I'm trying to say. I never said you thought the analogy was completely invalid. I said you didn't understand the relevant points of the analogies, and you were unable to explain how the relevant points weren't valid. It's just non-stop assumptions with you, isn't it?

Again, this is a critical thinking board, where we discuss things rationally. We all should be open to [constructive] criticism here, whether we like it or not, whether we agree with it or not. If you don't want to hear more criticism, then leave.
