Evidence of appeal to consequences?

Your initial point was that the theory was dependent upon public funding. Obviously this is not the case. Now you bring up the fallacy of appeal to consequences.

It didn’t make any more sense when Thomas Paine did it. The truth is the truth, consequences be damned (or forgiven as the case may be).

“Accustom a people to believe that priests, or any other class of men can forgive sins, and you will have sins in abundance” Thomas Paine

WRONG, I stand behind my initial point as you call it. TOE is nothing without public funding. TOE is a cult funded and paid for by taxpayers, plain and simple. Consequences are always there with anything including the TOE.
