And I have given numerous examples [of Chomsky misrepresenting his sources], to which no one has replied, except as mattd has recently done -- by citing Chomsky as evidence for the truthfulness of Chomsky, much after the fashion of a Christian who cites the bible as proof of the divinity of Jesus, and Jesus as proof of the infallibility of the bible.

I just gave you a response, which you just deleted. I may not have given previous examples to you personally, but this issue (bogus and misleading citations by Chomsky) has been discussed on this list many times.

You did not ask for an analysis of Chomsky's views. You asked for an example of Chomsky giving bogus citations. I gave you some examples. In your response, you will ignore those examples, and accuse me of misrepresenting Chomsky's views. The fact that you are already preparing to change the subject shows that in your heart, you already knew that Chomsky's very impressive sounding citations were fictional. --digsig James A.

Which I explained the reason to. I'll get around to the rest of it in the next day or so.
