Cyclic Arguments
How can some people be so blinkered that they can't see the folly of their arguments?
I once had a discussion with a God botherer about a friend who's wife was a 'witch'.
"Ahh, she believes in the mythical Gods" he said.
"No more mythical than yours" I replied; "They were about before Christianity".
The response of "No they weren't. Mine created the Earth, so he must have been around first" just defied a reply.
