Quote:If we are arguing purely from logic then I insist we do it properly.Ditto. See below.
Quote:Implying the existence of a necessary being implies existence itself is necessary. No logical attempt to justify this assumption has been made, this step has been skipped.Again, if we have a sound proof of A, and A implies B, we also have a sound proof of B. The soundness of a proof doesn't rest on how much time we spend discussing its implications. (See earlier point about having to get your hands dirty)
Quote:If not, please stop wasting my time by defending something you don't even buy into and defending it with badly thought out comparisons at that.Not until you start making valid counterarguments
