It appears that you all would like me to leave this forum and not continue with my arguments?

Not to speak for the other posters here, but no, I would like you to stay.
That being said, I'd also like you to admit to what an abject failure your 'Transitional Fossils' argument has been and to move on to argument #2.

You first. No one has been more childish on this thread than you.
I'm sorry you feel that way.

If you are going to continue to be obtuse, not engage, not use your own words, not use scholarly evidence, lie, misrepresent facts and our position, ignore anything contrary to your preconceived notion of what evolution/science is, quote mine, and dodge difficult questions, then yes.

We want you to actually argue, Rev, and not bounce around and piggyback on fallacious sources while refusing to engage with any responses that might actually pose a challenge.
Nobody here takes the idea of driving you out of the forum to be the ideal solution, but if you're finding a lot of resistance that's down to you and the way you choose to conduct yourself. I'd love it if you decided to become an active and productive member, but at the moment it's just so monumentally frustrating watching you mortgage your intellectual integrity to a bunch of hucksters, with no apparent understanding of anything you or they talk about.

Yes, please rev777...
Time to move on to number 2.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

They are not. You have been shown, in black and white, no fooling, honest to god objective text, where the sources you use have lied in order to misrepresent the position of a scientist. There's no way to get around it, and no mistaking it; the position they espoused was factually incorrect, and there was no way to come to the conclusion they did honestly.
I don't know how I can make this any clearer to you.

It's NOT valid. Do you understand the word NOT? Damn this is annoying.
