I have some of the answers. In this case, my feeling was that John was being

noise rather than be honest; your and Bruce’s axe grinding helped him.

Well, I suppose they did, though I wasn’t really paying attention. I apologize
if I let him off the hook too easy (and I think it is an established fact that
John and I do not see eye to eye on politics or religion at all).
But I do think he has a point that you over-use the implied rhetorical question
device way too much. That is merely my point of view on the subject, and
perhaps others disagree. I have seen you answer over a dozen points with a
question on numerous occasions (and only questions, and most of them intended as
a rhetorical device).
If it makes you feel better, I’ll happily denounce his views on Israel, George
Bush, War with Iraq, evolution, and what not. Substance over style. :-)

And speaking of axe grinding - my variations on that subject just to prove what
an axe grinder I am! :-)
