How is that any kind of reply, debating with you is like playing fundie
wheel of fortune, which vague and inconclusive reply will you give to
the sceptics challenge.

Asking your friends to help you cause a flamewar of slashdotish
proportitions is no way to conduct reasonable debate, since when has
sites like that where the barrier of entry to the debate requires zero
amount of knowledge, zero amount of insight and to make matters worse
the AC system ensures that uninformed nonsense and petty attacks are
conducted without accountablity ever produced any kind of intelligent
input. We are talking about a forum where random ignorant people under
the moderation of other random ignorant people decide what is right and
what is wrong. I can't tell you how often I've seen downright wrong
posts modded +5, Insightful on slashdot. It's defies the scientific
method, it's just.. well.. downright counter productive to rely on such
metrics to get any kind of informed concensus.

There is a reason why civilized debate relies on informed opinion rather
than popular opinion.
