It is also an Ad hominem fallacy to critcize the person of an argument and not directly talk about the argument itself.

Just to clarify, this is not a true statement. The Bible uses the word 'fool' 69 times in several different ways, most of them in the book of Proverbs. For instance:
Pr 12:15
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
Carry on.
