What do you think you're doing?

He asked a reasonable question that provided context and counterpoint to the original assertion, which advances the discussion. You posted a reactionary, knee-jerk response, driving the level of discussion into the ground, and accusing him of being in the wrong.

You are trolling.

I was not trolling. The question he asked was a baseless setup for anecdotal personal attacks. I simply added a tangential point to the conversation. Asking a question like that only serves to debate by way of cheap anecdotes.

"Well if you DID experience an ant colony invading your home, you would change the value of your binary view"

Its a cheap shot and I'd actually take your entire comment and point it at the unreasonably coy question intended to create a rift in what should be objective logic.
