   IAN: Dan, I asked you to explain why the
   definition of atomism that you invented was
   better than the traditional Three Laws of
   Thought. You refused to answer. You also
   refused to explain why your definition of
   mystical was better than a holistic one.

   I believe it is now incumbent upon you
   to explain why your definition of atomism
   was better than the Three Laws of Thought.
   If you care to explain that, here's my last
   two posts on the topic:

   As I clearly demonstrated, you evidenced
   no example of atomism. That you should
   come back impling otherwise is sorry.
