"You are arguing only against yourself here, as nobody has
taken the position that the Sun does not 'really exist'."

These two sentences leave only 3 consistent possibilities
that I can see...

1. You refer to yourself as "nobody."

2. You believe that the Sun really exists but
that your position is senseless.

3. You believe the Sun neither really exists nor doesn't
really exist.

So you can either tell me which one of these is accurate
and we can finally be done, or you can clarify one of the
two sentences, and we can be done.

Or you can come up with a fourth possibility, in which
case I for one will be very impressed and we probably
won't be done.

I'm guessin' you'll take #3, which will impress me in a
fashion, but we'll still be done.
