Except that IJ wouldn't say that in a Fair and Intelligent argument. He might, however, use it on someone who is not acting fairly or intelligently. Goodness knows he and I have had some sharp disagreements in the past, but he never threatened me with banning. But then again, I never told him he needed to shut his mouth. Telling someone to shut up because you disagree with them is neither fair nor intelligent.
That wonderful selective internet connection of yours doing it's magic again, eh?
Of course, what I said was COMPLETELY unprovoked, and wasn't preceeded by something incredibly demeaning and patronising, say comments like this:

The post was off-topic, I'll admit, and has less to do with the post I replied to than the many, many posts you've made that have an arrogant, self-righteous tone that puts some of our worst trolls to shame. You clearly have a complete lack of respect for any person, be they Christian, atheist, agnostic, pagan, or otherwise, whose opinions differ from yours even in the slightest. You are the very sort of person you spend so much time complaining about. I believed it was necessary to make you aware of that, though I doubt it will do much to improve your outlook or disposition.
I don't take kindly to being called arrogant, self righteous, and putting some of the worst trolls for shame, have no respect for anyone, a hypocrite, and that it's neccessary that i take this view as fact.
I hardly see how telling someone to shut up even compares to that kind of disrespect.
