Point taken...
So I am assuming its entirely what you DO present then and not also what you fail to present?
FAILING TO present from the start 'the facts/evidence in a way that promote your position' does not count because there is no burden of proof in a debate such as this?
I.E It's about what you say and not about what you fail to say...like I said - there must be no burden of proof then..

Point taken and well put I think.
