just making circular, pedantic, bad faith arguments.

How else are you going to validate that something is true? You have to push a bunch of ridiculous falsehoods and if they all fall down then you can, with reasonable confidence, know that the truth has presented itself.

Occasionally, what originally seems ridiculous actually holds water, and at that point you know something is suspect with what is presented as being true. This is why validation is necessary. Otherwise you're going to start believing a bunch of things that aren't true, and that would be silly.
