But when we disagree on something it doesn't automatically indicate that
you are correct merely because you claim "common sense".  I was saying in
the earlier post that such a claim is purely circular logic.  We could
ALL go around claiming that our view is based on "common sense", yet it
would do nothing to further debate or even give foundation to our claim.
