I'm confused here, can you please explain what part of the message is so terribly wrong.

(It's one thing to tell someone they are talking absolute crap, but it would have been a little more polite & taken away some of the bluntness (or rudeness) if you had explained why he was so wrong. It's one of my big complaints about this place, there is a small group of people who are arrogant enough to believe that they can say that they are right & don't have to back it up.)
