This just shows you know as much about electoral politics as you do about Christian polemics. My result was within a rounding error of my prediction to you that I'd do just a little better than the district's previous Libertarian share. As I told you then: "it's amusing that you apparently think I have some sort of emotional investment in how many votes I get" in such an election.
You've now had over a year to back up your statement that my arguments against Christianity "are not new" by citing earlier invocations of the points I listed to you here. I guess you've had as much luck producing those cites as you have had in nominating the "qualifying pro-Christian text with better arguments than mine" that I asked you for. If you ever come up with either, let me know.
I see I also told you that "if hearing about suboptimal outcomes for me is what you consider entertainment, then [...] keep an eye on my primary stocks DNA and YHOO". Thanks to those two stocks, I'm hundreds of thousands of dollars wealthier since we last talked.
I also correctly predicted that my posting of our conversation "will soon be one of the first ever web search results for 'Mike Mynes'". Sure enough, for anyone who searches for Mike Mynes on Yahoo (or Google or AskJeeves or AllTheWeb or AOL), the top result is now a link to me calmly eviscerating your sophomoric attempts at derision. So congratulations, and be sure to wave to anyone in the near or distant future who might be looking up the earliest reference to Mike Mynes on the Internet and its successors.
