In respect of context, when I first asked you the question - over six months ago - I stated:
Also, when KS directly asked Mr McD himself the question, well over six months ago, she wrote:
Furthermore, when she first asked you the question - also well over six months ago - she prefaced the question with the statement that it was "about making claims regarding being O9A and running an O9A nexion."
However, what's most interesting about your reply is that instead of directly answering that relevant and simple question you yet again try obfuscation.
So, here's the question rephrased in precise logical terms:
1. Ryan claimed for x number of years to be O9A.
2. Ryan admitted that he "didn't give a **** about the O9A code".
3. According to O9A insiders with a proven and initiated understanding of O9A esotericism, following that code is what distinguishes someone who is O9A from someone who is not O9A.
4. Therefore, was Ryan or was he not for years falsely claiming to be O9A?
Are you now going to answer the question? Or can we expect more obfuscation, more ignoratio elenchi?
However, even a cursory analysis of your claims reveals just how spurious they are.
To save boring readers, I will consider just one of your claims. You claimed that "calling you plebeian, a Christian; Ryan a pretender, and Darryl a pseudo-intellectual" amounts to argumentum ad hominem.
1.Plebeian. What someone wrote - in an article - was that your usage of ignoratio elenchi, argumentum ad hominem, and argumentum ad nauseam, was indicative of those afflicted by plebeian physis syndrome. Evidence of such usage was then supplied.
In other words, an assumption about character was made based on certain evidence, with the assumption made in an article. Which is not a logical fallacy - argumentum ad hominem - for several reasons, of which one is that it was not a response in a direct exchange (a discussion) between you and the author but rather appeared in an article. The most it might conceivably be is a misdiagnosis, given the technical nature of the comment (vide the term plebeian physis syndrome).
2. Christian. Since you yourself admitted on FB that you were a Christian, how is calling you a Christian committing the logical fallacy of argumentum ad hominem?
3. Pretender. Given that evidence was supplied in support of the claim of that person being a pretender, describing that person as a pretender on the basis of such evidence did not amount to committing a logical fallacy.
4. Pseudo-intellectual. Given that copious evidence was presented - including quotations in ancient Greek, and how the person in question gave wrong definitions of words and made many fallacious statements derived from misusing or misunderstanding certain terms - describing that person as a pseudo-intellectual on the basis of such evidence did not amount to committing a logical fallacy.
The rest of your claims are just as easily demolished.
Which is a fallacious statement of itself given that the context of the question asked - posts and/or threads about - always was the drama of whether or not Mr D was or was not O9A. As, in fact, a part of the question - "was he or was he not falsely claiming to be O9A?" - implies.It cannot be concluded from your premises that Kris was claiming to be ONA at all
In respect of context, when I first asked you the question - over six months ago - I stated:
Since Ryan admitted he didn't give a **** about the code O9A then his claims to be O9A for 8 years and to run and O9A nexion were dishonorable because false weren't they?
Also, when KS directly asked Mr McD himself the question, well over six months ago, she wrote:
you admitted that you "didn't give a **** about the O9A code" and that for x number of years you claimed to be O9A. Since presencing that code via living is what makes (and always has made) someone O9A, you falsely claimed for x number of years to be O9A and falsely claimed to running an O9A nexion. Didn't you?
Furthermore, when she first asked you the question - also well over six months ago - she prefaced the question with the statement that it was "about making claims regarding being O9A and running an O9A nexion."

Which in itself is ignoratio elenchi because whether or not someone responded to - for instance - your argumentum ad hominem with argumentum ad hominem is irrelevant to whether you frequently used argumentum ad hominem.I will give a list of the logical fallacies you and KS committed
