No. We just want to make sure you don't get side tracked. I hope all this talk about researching the liturature is for real. I would hate to be disapointed (I love a good argument). Anyway I think you may be going a little to far. It's not the little detals that are going to kill you; it's the big things. > > "The number of arguments is unimportant unless some of them are correct." > Attributed by Michael Ward to Steven Hartley, this observation > may also be found, for instance, in "You take Jesus, I'll Take God" > by Samuel Levine, a book for Jewish people on refuting Christian > missionaries.

It would indeed be "A touch of brilliance" if he were to say such a thing! In any case any plagerism that has occured was totally unintentional.
