It goes like this: You posited that faith-based beliefs could be proven erroneous because there are inconsistencies and contradictions among them.

I asked you if the same logic applied to theories, hence my question "if two theories contradict each other, are both negated?"

The obvious answer is "no" but you refused to answer the question because it exposes the fallacy inherent in your position that faith-based beliefs can be proven wrong by the contradictions among them. You can't have it both ways.

So, using decuctive reasoning,I can conclude that you're incapable of conceding a point even when proven wrong.
