They asked for evidence. I did as much, explaining a very, very basic concept in medicine, "sterile technique," and how even that can take years to get right. And was told, in response, that I'm just imagining reasons to object. Evidentally, keeping tools sterile in medicine is something I just conjured up!

Perhaps you should take your own advice, rather than responding with personal vitriol directed at the users countering your point.

Maybe it's because you always immediately change the subject from the one other people posted, so you have no right to whine when somebody does it to you.

I'm still waiting for you to reply to the questions I asked in the thread that you kept trying to change the subject away from. When I wouldn't let you do that, and kept bringing you back on topic, you ran away because you'd painted yourself into a corner with glaring contradictions in the things you said, and there was no way you could resolve the contradictions except by admitting you didn't really mean what you said.

Because you're making a point of singling out every single reply in this thread that you disagree with, and making your objection about the user posting the comment rather than the comment yourself. Or broadly asserting that the parent comment never claimed points that were plainly written, and insisting on textual support. Your actual contrarianism is rather distracting.

Good answer!

No, as in you are unable to provide evidence, or no as in your are unwilling?

Poor answer. Your postings are being flagged, downvoted, and you're on your way to getting banned. Keep answering like that, and you will be gone. And it will be easy for us to recognize you next time you make another troll account, so don't try it again.

Once again, your description of the conversation is quite inconsistent with the words written on the page, but I think there's not much hope in making any progress.

I'll share a piece of advice that a good friend of mine told me a few years ago: The mind is a wonderful servant, but a terrible master.

I didn't really understand what he was talking about at the time, I thought it was just another one of those silly platitudes that people who've smoked a bit too much drugs say. But after pondering it over the years, it has become one of my very favorite sayings.
