The cat and Mr Jack

Mr Jack
Thanks for your response, but I've no idea what your point is! I'm happy to accept that's because I'm not as bright as you, and I'm certainly not as cute as you appear to be in your photo!
Tuffers, in this ultra short story, one of the things you are telling us is that you are not as cute as Mr Jack appears to be in his photo. The photo in question is a picture of a cat. We all know that cats don't participate in debates like this one. Therefore the cat in the photo is not Mr Jack, and your story is false. Are we now to assume, solely on this evidence, that Mr Jack does not exist? Surely not.
Mind you, I am an atheist, and I sympathize with your thoughts, but I just want to point out that your reasoning is flawed.

"Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science." - Charles Darwin.

Re: It was not William Shakespeare that wrote Hamlet but another man of the same name
In light of what I wrote to Tuffers, I hope you are not going to tell me that the cat in your photo is not Mr Jack, but another cat of the same name...
