    All of that has been explained before. It is not a problem of mine that you don't have sufficient memory between your ears. Lack of substance? Absolutely. Spiritual matters are not formed by substance.

    Another lie on your part. If you did not care, you would not involve yourself in the discussion. At any rate, you obviously are a failure in any attempt to prove my beliefs in the Bible to be in error.

    What might they be?
    You have failed to identify them in this thread.
    But there you go again.
    "My beliefs" you say. It is all about you, isn't it?

    This is still equivocation albeit well hidden. Just as the colour orange and the fruit orange are not the same thing, facts as in "Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed" is not the same as a fact in "something believed to be true or real". The link between what is a fact and what is reality hinges on that first definition. When you're not using that, there is no longer a logical step making your facts "real". Thinking that filling one definition of a word makes it fill other definitions of the same word is what equivocation means.

    My guess is that definition 2c in your list of definitions is there so that using the word fact makes grammatical sense in some sentences that are not related to the reality of facts.

    Even the example given discusses "mistaken facts", clearly indicating that they don't necessarily are "true".

    No thanks, you're not worth the effort. Keep congratulating yourself on this huge victory.
