[TPIN] Anonymous credibility

[Glenn Bengry]

Mates,
 
       My boy here has some strong points.  People on the other side of the argument have a formidable debate opponent, regardless of his name, pedigree, quality of his double C.
 
 A good argument or point can stand on its own just like good science.  Scrutinize the statement.  I The idea of hiding implies that people need to know someone's name so they can attack the person or the person's credibility.  If you got a problem with a statements facts or logic, then challenge the facts and logic.  If you have to resort to attacking the messenger, then, perhaps, your rebuttal is not as strong as you thought.
