Well of COURSE you have 'no chance'. I cite evidence to support my claims; I ask you to do no more, but absolutely no less.
I thank you though for continually reacquainting me with J.S. Mill's position on the benefits of the 'collision of truth with error'.
If car insurance covered these collisions of ours, we'd both have seen our coverage dropped by now, and you'd be worn out from your trips to the 'exchange counter'.
That said, my 'impressions of the truth' are made so much more 'lively' from such 'collisions'

Quote:
John Stuart Mill
“The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it.
If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.”
― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty
