Don't worry about death. You already are dead. You just haven't stopped moving yet.

I'm going to do the smart thing here and disengage. This isn't a hill I paticularly care to die on.

"To quote the pre-eminent scholar on such things, this thread will "probably end badly" (MonkeyHead.)

However, despite his original premise being sound, there is little to no contextual evidence to support his hypothesis. Such an a priori argument strikes me as being less than reasonable. Despite this, the scholar has effectively utilised "probably" and so we may deduce that this is an analytic conclusion. This, whilst carrying little weight, gives his argument the flexibility to withstand critical scorn."

Excellent analysis of the given quote, though your error in MLA formatting leaves something to be desired.
