Amos: Please be advised that Ad Hominem attacks are a logical fallacy that indicate you have nothing to offer but personal attacks and rhetoric.

An ad hominem argument, also known as argumentum ad hominem (Latin: "argument to the person", "argument against the man") consists of replying to an argument by attacking or appealing to the person making the argument, rather than by addressing the substance of the argument. It is most commonly used to refer specifically to the ad hominem abusive, or argumentum ad personam, which consists of criticizing or personally attacking an argument's proponent in an attempt to discredit that argument.

Ad hominem is one of the best known of the logical fallacies usually enumerated in introductory logic and critical thinking textbooks.

As a technique of rhetoric, it is powerful and used often, despite its inherent incorrectness, because of the natural inclination of the human brain to recognize patterns.
