I'm with darkmane - no point in annoying everyone by trying to talk sense over there.
He really, however, needs to become acquainted with another rather staunchly right-wing catholic to learn argumentation - while his arguments within themselves are decently logical (if not decent), his premises lack the logical basis to carry them. As Bill (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_F._Buckley,_Jr.) often said "if I can get you to accept my premise, I cannot lose the argument."
Let us note that I do not accept any of Mr. JCW's premises. Therefore, he cannot *win* the argument.
