If you wish to argue against Platonism, in favor of constructivism, you could do so civilly, as Brouwer and Heyting did, without calling anyone a moron, which seems like an illogical thing to do in a discussion of philosophy at this level. You could also listen to the question Alchemy asked, “I believe on God. I'm not sure why. Maybe you can give me some logical explanation for believing in God.” And you might have considered my tenuous answer, “Because 1 + 1 = 2” with its various implications, before spouting off like some bloated whale without provocation.

Take whatever position you want, but at least consider that a logical God might be discussable by non-morons.

I hate name-dropping, and here I’ve done it. That’s how far you’ve drug me down.
