If someone is indeed wrong, why is it a bad thing to tell him that?

Its not a bad thing at all, as long as you are sure the other person
is indeed wrong. But where you have gone wrong on this group is too
many times you have told people incorrectly that they were wrong, that
will really **** a lot of people off. And then to make it worse,
there have been people who would still take the time to explain to you
why you were wrong, and you would refuse to accept it or acknowledge
you were wrong. Come to think of it I cant recall a single time you
admitted you were wrong. You invariably try to weasel your way out of
it by changing the argument, or saying your reasoning applied to some
other situation that is out of context with the original discussion.
In other words, intellectual dishonesty. Example? would you like
to tell us again why we cant apply the ideal gas law to calculate the
air density of a parcel of air we want to fly in. And if you want to
make a total idiot of yourself why not crosspost it to sci.chem?
