You are thrashing.

You were wrong in the one example you gave. Even so, your broader false dichotomy (If you were wrong on one, you were wrong on all) fails on its face.

Don’t try to argue logic via wikipedia. Either you know it or you do not.

You do not and your increased display of ignorance does you, me and FR no good.

Find me even one credible reference that defines "argumentum ad absurdum" as "...makes no sense in any way, shape or form" and I'll concede to you and withdraw from the argument.

(I'll be most interested to see how you weasel out of accepting THAT challenge)
