impassioned human-ness
"words of impassioned humanness (whether feigned or real) except in the context of someone who has decided that reason alone will not win the day".

Classic Rhetorical technique. Touche NoAx.

By the way, I use UNIX, Linux, FreeBSD and Windows XP (and I like it). That doesn't mean there aren't issues with Windows. You should be able to turn more stuff off, and remove it from the system (or replace it). More fine grained APIs should be public. Just saying it's as secure as anything else don't make it so.
