   You don't convince anybody who has a brain to think with, so I see no   
   reason to debate with you.   
      
   Referring to "The second law of thermodynamics" in a political debate is   
   just laughable. What you are throwing at me is not coming from a serious,   
   well educated and honest mind. The readers I write for know that, so I have   
   no reason to reply to anything you have come up with so far.
