| Do not confuse one who is contending earnestly for the faith with the disputer of this age. |
|
| By contrast, when we turn to Gongsun Long, we encounter a disputer who may have been devoted to sophistry purely for sophistry's sake. |

|
| It is an exercise in cleverness, a kind of trick performance in which the disputer attempts to make a case for a claim that everyone knows does not fit its object. |
