which is a leap of faith on your part since all you're doing is jumping to conclusions about what I believe without even a shred of evidence. So your argument is based on your assumptions about what I believe. You're a victim of your own faux rationalizations or you believe everyone is you, therefore you evidently think you have the perfect foil.

That's like saying Bush was elected and the Supreme Court didn't, in fact, select him and then proceeding to make your case based on the lie that he was elected as if it were the truth, conveniently forgetting that he actually wasn't elected by us, the people.

The Truth isn't what makes history. It's the perception of Truth that makes history and the acceptance of the false as Truth that makes history.
