Let me get this straight, Lou. You're claiming to be both an academic and a teacher? Good grief.
Your posts belong in the dictionary beside the definition of one of the inherently false propositions described by the Romans, petitio principii, colloquially, "begging the question". And that argument of fallacy arises from the Greeks before them. Lou, wiser men have been on to peeps like you for thousands of years. Y'er busted, dude.
Petitio principii is circular reasoning. Only those who believe the assumptions upon which a conclusion is based can believe the outcome of the argument. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging_the_question
You obviously spend hours and hours scouring the internet looking for any reference that supports your deluded thinking, while simultaneously ignoring all evidence that would make your argument weaker. That is called selection bias, when done innocently, but I think that yours is malicious. In any case, it is a compounding element of fallacious reasoning.
Lou, YOU ARE NOT A TEACHER.
Lou, YOU ARE NOT AN ACADEMIC.
Lou, you are mentally ill, in a way that is beyond the scope of medicine. May you pray to your patron god Lucifer, and seek redemption.
