You apparently don't know much about fallacies, nor sarcasm.  Argumentum ex culo is a sardonic way of telling you you're pulling your argument out of your ass. It's not actually a logical fallacy as much as it is simply an unsupported assertion.

I did gather that when I looked it up... However I don't understand the complaint. Is my understanding of algebra faulty, or can I add apples and oranges, to get a total number of apples.

This is the ex culo part, because Christianity posits a personal god. He is not a title, he is a being. You're trying to have it both ways when you argue this.

I believe I said being.

I don't believe that is accurate.

OK...I'm familiar with pseudo-skepticism and it is expected.

Non-answers. Revise and resubmit. D-.
