You are legitimate as you are.
You are right, I have difficulty with your perspective. I was challenging it. But I was not attacking you nor declaring you illegitimate.
My comment about writing skill was not referring at all to the content or nature of your post. It was MY writing I was talking about--that my intentions were apparently not conveyed properly by my use of language.
However, it seems that no matter what I try to say to clarify my intentions, I get nowhere. What you have said to me today gives me the impression that you automatically attribute hostile intentions.
I have no need to help you. I had a desire to converse and challenge your perspective, as you have challenged mine and others here. I offered thoughts. I offered help, and it has been no surprise to me that you reject it. And so it is your right to do so.
