Proof of the Nonexistence of Christopher A. Lee |
I believe the following argument solves the persisting and baffling
mystery concerning the puzzling existence of the purported human being
named "Christopher A. Lee".
Proof of the Nonexistence of Christopher A. Lee:
(1) If Christopher A. Lee exists, then Christopher A. Lee is a human being.
(2) If Christopher A. Lee exists, then Christopher A. Lee is the cause
of the usenet posts attributed to Christopher A. Lee.
(3) There is something that exists which generates the usenet posts
attributed to Christopher A. Lee (hereinafter, the "Lee Post Generator",
or LPG).
(4) If the LPG is Christopher A. Lee, then the LPG is a human being.
(5) The usenet posts attributed to Christopher A. Lee are (a) produced
in an extraordinarily automatic, mechanical, reflexive, and repetitive
manner, (b) are extremely obtuse and thoroughly lacking in any
thoughtfulness or insight, and (c) completely lack any indication of
having been produced by an intelligent or rational human being.
(6) No human being could produce usenet posts (a) in such an
extraordinarily automatic, mechanical, reflexive, and repetitive manner,
(b) which are as extremely obtuse and thoroughly lacking in any
thoughtfulness or insight, and (c) which are as completely lacking of
any indication of having been produced by an intelligent or rational
human being as are the posts attributed to Christopher A. Lee.
(7) Therefore, the LPG is not a human being. (from 5 & 6)
(8) Therefore, the LPG is not Christopher A. Lee. (from 4 & 7)
(9) Therefore, Christopher A. Lee is not the cause of the usenet posts
attributed to Christopher A. Lee. (from 3 & 8)
________________________________________________________
Therefore, Christopher A. Lee does not exist. (from 2 & 9)
P. S. : While this is beyond the scope of the proof of the preceding
argument, the most reasonable conclusion that can be drawn about the LPG
is that it is an artificial intelligence program that still requires a
considerable amount of work.

In fact what you have just proved is that you are an idiot.

(5) The usenet posts attributed to Christopher A. Lee are (a) produced
in an extraordinarily automatic, mechanical, reflexive, and repetitive

Subjective opinion. Useless.
(b) are extremely obtuse and thoroughly lacking in any
thoughtfulness or insight,
Ditto.
and (c) completely lack any indication of
having been produced by an intelligent or rational human being.
Ditto.
So your proof fails.

No proof. Just a bunch of opinions, formatted in a similar way to a
formal proof.
You know, just because you have premises and bulleted lines of reasoning
and nicely offset Conclusions to wrap it up doesn't make your argument a
formal proof... just a hint ;)

Well, I don't think you've succeeded in proving Chris's nonexistence,
but you've certainly presented some compelling evidence that you're a
fucking idiot.
But then, you've been doing that all along.....

Looks like Christopher got the better of you. An apology from you would
be more in order that the lame nonsense I snipped. It's no big deal to
admit that you were wrong - go on, you can do it.

Well, if he read this, took it seriously, and became worried that perhaps it
*did* prove that he didn't exist, I *do* apologize for frightening him. ;)

I just hope he doesn't apologise too quickly.

That's not true, "johnebravo836" does, and "johnebravo836" is mortal.

And similarly for Septic Capon, the Simple Pimple, AKA Dixit, AKA about
100 other names, but the program that creates the posts promulgated
under these many names is easily identifiable.
