Marsha, As a friend, I hope I can ask without patronising, can you see that this response to Dan is what is getting Horse et al wound up ?
You're "not wrong" but endlessly answering questions with questions is ultimately nihilist. Intellectual or not, we can all play this game and we all understand where it leads. It needs to be used sparingly, in balance with more constructive behaviours. You understand it too, so it is not surprising many assume you use it as a deliberately spoiling tactic rather than constructive / progressive. Talk off-line if you'd prefer.
