I'm wondering, at this point, if the thread title isn't ironic?

Given Peter's abandonment of his own thread, perhaps it should be titled "Debating an creationist--is it even possible? "

Most certainly not. "Debating a creationist" I might accept. [/Grammar Communist]

"Debating a Grammar Communist--is it better just to nuke them?"

Comrades! We must stand together for the Revolution! We will not give in to the threats of the imperialist anti-grammar exploiters. Rest assured : Even if ten million of us die, the Revolution will continue from within the Party's atom-proof bunkers! For each bomb the capitalists drop, we shall drop ten, twenty, a hundred bombs!

I call on you all to unite for the Grammarland, as your fathers did in the Great Spelling War. We must sacrifice! We must work! But in the end, we shall build a paradise of True Orthographic Correctness, even in your lifetimes!

Writers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your apostrophes!

Oh, dear. I meant to say "Debating a Grammar Communist?--better to ignore them until their economy fails."

The historical dialectic of Strunk and White demonstrates that it is the capitalist, anti-grammar societies whose economies will collapse. The inevitable march of history has condemned your false vision to the ash-heap. As the contradictions of your system multiply, the people will inevitably become tired of reading your badly spelled propaganda, and will turn to the true science of the future!

Strunk and White? Are you kidding? Try Marshall Mcluhan's ideas on media. Spelling is irrelvant in post-lexical propaganda. Join the 21st century, why dontcha.
Or that famous essay "the end of grammar" written after the fall of the Soviets' Evil Empire.
