Geggy, your recent posts have convinced me.
Convinced me that you do not, yourself, believe the stuff you are posting here, and are just having fun making skeptics respond to stupidity with patience and diligence. It's like you finally found a person polite enough to open a door for you, so you keep going in and out, secretly snickering at the poor sap who continues to be polite.
Fortunately, these polite and diligent skeptics, as a side effect of entertaining you, have amassed a pile of information certain to convince anyone who is truly interested in seeing the truth. I am certain it has convinced you, for instance. You know, beyond any reasonable doubt, that the points you are arguing for are absurd, and that they have been answered.
I once had a student, in a class debate, paint herself into a corner where she was forced to argue in favor of polio and whooping cough (which she did) instead of retreating from her "good old days" stance (which she would never do). A friend here, when I spoke of it, said that it sounded like this student knew she was further and further out on this limb, had convinced herself that she was wrong, and simply needed to take her own argument to its absurd conclusion to convince herself. Well...you have taken your arguments to absurdity and back again. And I am convinced.
I hope you are enjoying it.
