The beauty of hierarchy

If I have a solution but you don't, then I am ahead of you in solving the problem. 

If you don't like my solution, find a better one or undermine my proposal by showing that it is not based on sound information, sound reasoning or sound principles.  

If you cannot do this, you have lost the argument.

Liberals, nihilists, moral relativists and egalitarians find it difficult to accept this. Because they are narcissists, they think they have the right to like the cure to their mortal disease in the way that they think someone whose leg has turned black has the right to enjoy the amputation that will save his life.
