Actually just one, but it's almost the same, right? Almost? Why don't you just talk with me, without rancor, instead of arguing endlessly?

Honestly? Because you showed up here and started lecturing us about how we didn't understand this issue, but now you're here and you're ready to enlighten us.

If you had started off on a different tack, I would think that you were just naive but passionate about the topic. But if you're going to bring the "I'm your intellectual savior" attitude, you'd better be able to back it up. Normally if someone has nothing to teach me I'd just move on, but when it's combined with the level of arrogance you've displayed, it really gets under my skin.
