If it's so easy to label his argument as crackpottery then it should be just as easy for you to prove it. So far, no one has addressed his argument, just a bunch of sniping & commentary. Perhaps if there was more rational discussion of classical arguments, and less sniping, there'd be less unsubscribing.
