Can I see a list of all the people to whom he has left negative reputation? Notice how he does not refute, but instead misdirects like all good magicians.

I have a friend of many years who has a lot of trouble with that. He has a mind that automatically looks for the conflicting position on any subject or observation. On the one hand, it makes him brilliant. But on the other hand it makes him very annoying and difficult to converse with. But then I think it's like that with everything outstanding. The greater the asset the greater the liability. They tend to come as a set.

I have no problem with passionate debate and being "the devils advocate". All too often people just accept what they have heard without looking at alternative views. I do think however, that discretion in regard to intensity and frequency is an important aspect of social grace.
