Glad you found it helpful. Actually the whole Logical Fallacies site is worthy of your attention.

My point being that not all violence is evil. That was either the point you were making, or absolutely contradicted your point, I'm not sure which.

Um, no, I'm not implying it. I've been stating it flat out, repeatedly.

So, by your reading, during W.W. II, inbetween writing the first and second voumes of the trilogy, Dr. Asimov really shouldn't have been working (along with Heinlein and DeCamp) at the Naval Air Experimental Station at the Philadelphia Navy Base here? With him being such a total pacifist and all, both his enlisting in the Army and working to develop weapons systems surely would have been hypocritical.
I'll take note that spelling criticism is once again fair game, too. :-)
