       You are dealing with a moron who "thinks" he's a genius. Since he   
   believes he knows everything, and has believed it since grade school,   
   he has learned very little if anything about reality since then. Don't forget   
   that you're dealing with someone who thinks a fantasy about a talking   
   pig which was written by one of his fellow "ARAs", somehow refutes the   
   fact that some farm animals benefit from farming. And this same stupid   
   moron believes that a fantasy about a talking is of some great value,   
   but calls recognition of emotions in animals anthropomorphic.

       He is desperately trying to prevent people from recognizing that   
   some farm animals benefit from farming, and will tell any lie he thinks   
   will help with that.   
      
   >Here's another one for you, have you ever admitted to an error?   
      
       He is dedicated to his cause, and that dedication doesn't allow for   
   admition of lies or errors.   
      
   >You

       He is an "ARA" pretending pitifully to be an "AR" opponent, trying   
   to use the example of his character to portray true "AR" opponents   
   as stupid, childish, above all dishonest, inconsiderate of humans and   
   other animals, etc, so the last thing Goo wants to do is portray himself   
   as a better person.
