Jon, Jon, Jon... You aren't going to win an argument over political correctness. Thomas Paine nailed that one.
To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, and whose philosophy consists in holding humanity in contempt, is like administering medicine to the dead, or endeavoring to convert an atheist by scripture. Enjoy, sir, your insensibility of feeling and reflecting. It is the prerogative of animals.—Thomas Paine
And note that I did not change the words 'man' or 'sir' in the quote deliberately.
