Really? What of my analysis is actually incorrect?

Where is your answer to any of my corrections?

Your answer is always that you "know better", when you can't source your 
basis, and say that everyone else is just stupid.

I let you in on something, the only people whop think everyone else is 
stupid, it the total idiot that can't see there own stupidity.

You have in so many words admitted that you are just a liar in your 
discussion of these problems, going so far as to say that the logic in 
them is just invalid as logic doesn't work.

You are just stuck in a world of your imagination that needs "Truth 
Fairies" to make imaginary statement seem to be true.

Sorry, you are just a dying stupid idiotic pathological liar.
