Damn I forgot metroid posted here, that's just unfair
Oh quit whining. The point I'm trying to make is that credentials don't win you a debate.
For instance, Phase's posts in this topic are pretty clearly more intelligent than my posts in this topic. I'm actually learning stuff from them (hadn't heard the "independent of current axioms" argument--that's a pretty neato idea).
And perhaps I out-credential Phase, but it really doesn't matter. Even if I do, Phase has clearly done more research and is more up-to-date and informed about these subjects than I am, and is doing a better job of articulating the concepts. THAT is what matters, not credentials.
