True believers are exceedingly gullible.

That's a straw man argument used to accuse people who are investigating a topic of already having their minds made up.

It's the height of intellectual dishonesty (and a very unintelligent logical fallacy).

Point of order.

Since you have forbidden me to post to you, I assumed the honorable thing for you to do would be to not post to me. Unfortunately I assumed you were perhaps an honorable man. Past is prologue. This was my error.

Not that I mind. Unlike you, I'm willing to discuss and defend my ideas.
