Stop trying so hard to sound intelligent. You'll never win an argument concerning my usage of grammar. Niggas know what they're talking about. Fuck are you like 15?
Of COURSE therefore works in that context. It works 1,000%
The example sentence is "I think, therefore I am"
I think, therefore(as a result), I am
They win, therefore(as a result) they write history to their liking
& There is no redundancy in saying PhDs and degrees.. Degrees entails every kind of degree there is pther than PhDs in that context. Associates, Bachelors, Masters, etc..... a PhD is a doctorate degree and the highest degree you can have. For the sake of not listing the lesser degrees, I said PhDs & degrees. And again, degrees entails every other degree that isn't a PhD
You're defiinitely like 15. It's cute though. You're trying too hard to look stupid. Try less.

If by "You'll never win an argument concerning my usage of grammar," you mean that I will never get you to admit you were wrong here in the forums, then yes, you are correct. That's why it's a good thing my responses have not been written with such a motive. My responses are for the other intelligent people in here to read and enjoy while we all laugh at your stupidity and douche-baggery. I'm not sure if you even noticed, but you've changed your original explanation of "therefore" from "as a result of" to "as a result." The word "of" is a key element, but I doubt you understand why. Also, I did not say the word "therefore" doesnt work in that context. I was merely showing you the message you were actually conveying with your usage of the word despite what you were attempting to say. I'm interested to see how you alter your comments again and try to present them as what was originally said. It should be interesting.

The fact that the word "degrees" describes all "degrees" is quite obvious LMAOOO and is precisely the reason why connecting it to "PhD's"using only the word "and" is redundant, since you've already described all degrees. Why would you have to mention PhD's "for the sake of not listing the lesser degrees" when you've already essentially listed ALL of them in one word? If wanted to add PhD's to emphasize the fact that by "degrees" you meant "even the higher degrees" I guess I would understand that, but the problem here again rests on only one or two words. To do this you need to say something like, "degrees including PhD's" or if you had the opposite intention, to emphasize that the lower degrees are included, you could say, "PhD's as well as other degrees"
I'm sure that none of this makes sense to you, but to anyone who learned how to properly read and write as a child it makes perfect sense. I'm sorry to say that these concepts are often impossible to fully learn after adolescence, so depending on your age, you may be fucked.
