As long as he’s not willing to be asked why he believes what he believes (’being interrogated”), he’s not in that category. Not being willing to go there, leads to a lot of pointless debates for the sake of debating.

I don’t really disagree with this, but I’m not sure his behavior in this thread alone can be used as a reliable indicator of whether he’s willing to be “interrogated”. Possibly he may be more receptive to questioning in other threads.
