"But, look: you say you don't know much about the subject, but you want to see criticisms of the argument. Shouldn't you have asked *first* for the argument, since you say you don't know it very well, before starting to ask for criticisms of the argument? One cannot understand criticisms to X until one knows what X is. -- Arturo Magidin"
