'Right' and 'wrong' are static concepts to define an ever evolving world.

Meaningless wordplay. Some things are wrong, pure and simple.

In your opinion.

No, not opinion.

Let me put a memory chip in backwards in your computer and see how that works.

Try putting water in your gas tank and see how she runs.

Religion and politics may be a mere matter of opinion, but in science, math and engineering, some things are totally right or totally wrong.

As I have stated many times, I make my living making more correct choices than my opponents. I love that they believe the correct choice is merely a matter of opinion else I would have to work for my income.

Synergistic effect does not back up a claim that 1 and 1 is three. Nor is it an argument for the idea that truth does not exist, or that no one can be right.

What you are talking about is like mixing certain drugs. The combined effect is greater than either of the two separately. But there are perfectly good reasons for this! The concept of "rightness" is not just thrown out the window!

did you reveal that you were a lawyer previously then (possibly more than once) - I had thought you could be one of the barred?
