You have no probative evidence to offer I identified independent source material to legitimize my 30000+ contention (Pub 78,F990 and attendant analysis) all available under FOIA but you are unable or unwilling to refute said documents. The Burden of Proof shifted to you and you were unable to counter my assertions of at least 30000 discrete entities Case closed. the 30000 + plus remains.

Are you an attorney, or do you just like watching TV programs? You are the one who stated the evidence "proved" your opinion, you stated the "probative" evidence was the IRS documents that list 501(3c) entities, you also admitted you had NOT done the work necessary to prove your contention.

One key element for the admission of evidence is whether it proves or helps prove a fact or issue. If so, the evidence is deemed probative. Probative evidence establishes or contributes to proof. (http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/probative)

The burden of proof was YOURS since you submitted such as your convincing evidence of your statement. You did not prove your assertion and only "guessed", therefore it is your burden, not mine. I also gave you your own words admitting you did not examine the documents, stating "It would take years" to make an educated opinion of such. You make a fool of yourself by standing by a bogus number that you and everyone else should know it is. Here's a deal, you want to insist there are 30k different Protestant denominations, then I will assert there are 8000 different Catholic denominations. Is that okay with you, counselor?

How many times do you need to be told that the probative evidence is the F 990 and attendant statistical analysis from which I gleaned the 30000 plus number in 1998.I used the analytical report in lieu of wading through an ocean of statistics. Prove the analysis incorrect. Pub 78 is the starting point but as previously explained to you it is is merely a list of entities.

Thus I provided the source and a means for you to search through FOIA. Use it or cease and desist this harassment which is bordering on an actionable tort.

You stated "You did not prove your assertion and only "guessed". Please provide empirical evidence to substantiate said claim. To make such an assertion without evidence is not only inadmissible but is construed as defamation of character.Be advised you are publicly Noticed to refrain from such statements against me in this matter as you are merely attributing Intent without the requisite proof. I have a legal right to defend myself from libelous assertions and it appears you may have committed such a Tort.

It would be well for you to provide substantive proof for future assertions of a similar nature you make against my character. The Burden of proof lies with you. Law school would have provided you with this knowledge.
