You'll never get away with that blatant inversion. You state that there is such a thing as a statement which is neither true nor false nor meaningless. I reply, show me one. That's just like you insisting that there's a god somewhere and me replying, "Show me this God of which you so glowingly speak." And you have the temerity and gall to accuse ME of being the faith-filled one, when it is YOU who has affirmed your belief in the existence of something you cannot demonstrate? Pleeeze!
