You are using sophistry to distract from the lack of merit in your 'argument'. I don't care whether you know you're doing it, except that if you aren't aware of what you're doing, you're preventing yourself from being able to think clearly, and I feel sorry for people who do that to themselves (in a sense, it makes you a victim of a non-rational belief system that has ensnared you). And this has nothing to do with what you do or don't believe about the issue at hand, only with your inability to reason about it.
