Harold, I totally understand and agree with the precept you have just laid out, but where you are wrong is that it is NOT RELEVANT here. Firstly, it presupposes that there is a calculation involved here and that one of the answers is correct. That is simply not true in the 2999/3000 gods argument. This argument is ONLY about pointing out the hypocrisy of a christian not believing in 2999 gods and then claiming that the atheist is wrong to not believe in 3000. What you are doing is classic Strawman Fallacy. Please don't!
