@ Trustworthy: Oh yeah
I see. So you saying: "You really don't get it? Come on, I think you're more intelligent than you're letting on." was not you saying that I'm not intelligent enough to understand your point thus proving that you were right and I was wrong... the Ad Hom Fallacy?
Blimey your going to take my crown as most wriggleworthy member!
This is the usual silliness we see. I believe it's brought about by the lack of coherent argument.
You mean the question about how it has to exist first? You're going to make me break out in uncontrollable laughter soon.
As far as I can see... you haven't recovered from my first response in this thread which destroys your position.

You would be correct if I discredited your arguments based on your intelligence. I did not. The old ad hom. fallacy is thrown around so much on forums it seems people forget what it actually means.

The unicorn has told me it has decided to raise the stakes. If you do believe in it, it shall reward you with an eternal life. If you do not believe in it, you shall be tortured for an eternity.
I must go, it is speaking to me now and I must record what is is saying before Almighty Unicorn's Word is lost. But first...

How can it have any meaning? You have failed to answer the questions of my previous post.
