Instead, I spoke only of your awful writing. You may fancy yourself to be an adept, intelligent debater, but it's apparent that you are not. Your arguments, thus far, are peppered with childish remarks and irrelevant complaints that stem from your own inability to clearly and concisely defend yourself.

Honestly, I don't care enough about you or your opinion on this matter to enter into a debate about it. As far as I am concerned, and making judgement based upon your behavior on these forums, I consider you to be a self-righteous, arrogant, sad person. If other people wish to continue to engage you, that is their prerogative. However, the least you can do is make a better effort at appreciating the effort they put into their arguments, as well as putting in a little yourself. When you can show that you've intelligently considered your position by writing in a collected, coherent, persuasive manner, perhaps you'll change some of our opinions.

That is what you're trying to do, after all? Surely, you wouldn't do this to stroke your ego, right?
Well, you've got me mostly pegged. Although I apologize, I meant someone else, and your name came to mind (not entirely sure why, as your argument had only been partially said by someone else--porper person now cited).
And no, I don't put as much effort as I could into my arguments. I'm not exactly writing an English essay here--I get enough of that. And yes, if you'll note, I made a clear distinction between sacrifice and risk. Twice. Then emphasized it the third.
