    So if I said Spock is logical because he is Vulcan, then that is illogical?

    No; the way I read into it, he is illogical because his Mother was Human... *And to be Human is... :rolleyes:

    BTW: If you Google *that I love one result by Google;

    What does it mean to be human.
    A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt

    So there was an uprising by Robots making Humans obsolete? :o o:

    Since Vulcan's don't exist, can any statement about Vulcan's be logical or illogical? Best to start your logical argument with something that actually exists. :smile:

    Starting a logical rebuttal with an assumption is illogical. Please attempt to prove that Vulcan's do not exist. It is almost impossible to prove a negative claim and thus defies logic. :sneaky:

    It seems you have proven it to their standards, but is it possible you had an addadiktome operation at an early age? Thus it is not "proof" but merely "beyond reasonable doubt". There is a difference. PS. No need to prove it to me :clown:
