You attacked my comment based on your misperception of my account. It's the definition of an ad hominem.


That's not what an ad hominem is. It's Latin for "to the man." It means an argument directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining, which is not what I did at all. I argued against your false assertion that "churches already make enough money as it is" by pointing out that it's abundantly clear that not all of them do.

Also, it's not a "misperception" to observe the reality that your account is new, and that your comment is essentially thinly-veiled trolling.


209 days is "new" to you?

Why does it even matter how old the account is?


To someone whose account is 2961 days old? Yes.
