Decem, you said in the first quote “Pax took this position…”
Then in the next paragraph you said “But I pointed out to him…”
The way you wrote this, implies that my position was wrong because your phrase “I pointed out to him” implies that you corrected me.
I don’t know of any other way to interpret what you wrote. I said A. You pointed out B. You never said you agreed with A. And you implied that B was correct. It’s very confusing.
