Thanks Rob, for the well thought out reply, as always.

I'm curious though, isn't convincing usually contingent on certainty? Whereas belief is not?

Plato had defined Man as an animal, biped and featherless, and was applauded. Diogenes plucked a fowl and brought it into the lecture room with the words,

"Behold Plato's man!"
