In a college course I took on logic, they explained your method of argument as a fallacy. They assigned a Latin name to it but I remember it by its working name, the fallacy of the beard. The example of this fallacy is as follows: There is an accepted number of hairs that every one will agree constitute a beard, say 2000. Will 1999 hairs still make a beard? Yes. Will 1998 hairs still make a beard? Yes Since there is not a specific number that will seperate the beards from the nonbeards, one hair must make up a beard. Obviously one hair isn't a beard. You've done a similar thing as this with the time line of the conception-birth-afterbirth process. T.A.Rock hou5f!tar Holmdel ABI
