You describe your uncle as a person who is caught up in his own "feelings", and doesn't seem to be able to deal with a rational discussion.

This post seems to be a simple assertion of your feelings (or values). Can anything here be proved or disproved by a rational method? Or do you consider it "self-evident truth"?
