Again kind Sir, name calling is NOT debate; between two adults. State a real premise, and defend it with facts to convince those who may disagree.

Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797), the famous British writer and feminist (and mother to the author of Frankenstein), included this quotation (origin was unclear even then):

"Convince a man against his will, He's of the same opinion still."

This should be considered a truism.
