It seems that you are going all over the place. I don't know whether you know what you are doing, or you are trying so hard to convince people to believe you. You really don't need to put so much effort to do it. Just say what your opinion is, and then explain why you belive so. Then people would read and judge for themselves. I am pretty sure they would believe you if you have a legitimate argument. If you don't, you are just making an ass for yourself.
