I make a claim.
You refute the claim.
That's how a discussion should work.

You attack me by needlessly questioning my knowledge of something presupposed in the discussion, putting me in a lose-lose situation. I am left to either prove I know what I'm talking about and look like a putz, or refuse to answer and get attacked for doing that.

FWIW I'm a Philosophy major (as well as Astronomy) with a minor in Applied Ethics. I do indeed know what I'm talking about. But now by saying that I'll get attacked for bragging (or something along those lines). Thanks for putting me in the lose-lose situation.
