Acquaint yourself with the strawman fallacy GunnyL, because the above bolded sentences litter your entire response. You are cheating GunnyL. That's what you are doing when you employ this fallacy. It's a weapon the incapabale employ to hoodwink the proper rules of debate.
The Straw Man fallacy is committed when a person simply ignores a person's actual position and substitutes a distorted, exaggerated or misrepresented version of that position. This sort of "reasoning" has the following pattern:
1. Person A has position X.
2. Person B presents position Y (which is a distorted version of X).
3. Person B attacks position Y.
4. Therefore X is false/incorrect/flawed.
This sort of "reasoning" is fallacious because attacking a distorted version of a position simply does not constitute an attack on the position itself. One might as well expect an attack on a poor drawing of a person to hurt the person.

I need no strawman argument to get over on you. You don't know what you're talking about and I do. Pretty-damned simple, really.
You're just talking in circles now, trying to deflect your way out of an argument you obviously lost from the beginning, due mostly to your ignorance to the topic you're attempting to discuss.
