“Resorting to ad hominem attacks now, are we?”

You can’t be serious.

Look up the definition of argumentum ad hominem.

“Good to know that I frustrate you so”

It is normal and appropriate to be frustrated by willful wrong-headedness. I don’t know why you would consider that a badge of honor.

Ad hominem: marked by or being an attack on an opponent's character rather than by an answer to the contentions made.

I only replied with the Christianity Today article because it was relevant to the discussion you had decided was no longer worth rebuttal. Unfortunately, since that point (and even a few posts before it), you have contributed nothing to the conversation except for remarks like "Now *that's* hard-headed."

Claiming "lack of energy," you have made no effort to answer my contentions and have resorted to parroting "You're wrong" without substantiating just why I am wrong in your eyes.

Sadly, my part in this 'discussion' is done.
