And as you type these admonitions, can you not see an irony? Isn't it just as reasonable that you suffer from the same malady of a 'need to have the last word'?
... despite not having a leg to stand on, using whatever means.
You keep repeating this without reference to the actual ad hominem you allege I use. Beyond acknowleging your point about ad hominem -- that it can be (it's by no means a certainty!) a sign that you haven't 'a leg to stand on' -- I can't really defend myself because of your lack of specificity.
Ad-hominem is not universally inadmissible. See: 'You brood of vipers...' for its ultimate sanction.
Besides not ever making that claim, are you suggesting that my use of ad hominem is 'inadmissible' and John's use, and your use, fall in the same category as Christ's condemnation?
