This is why I questioned you regarding your premise.

Please, PM, re-read my question regarding your premise.
I have read your post.

You simply don't understand my argument.

I showed that I gave an argument *with the same form* and *with the same numer of true premises*, but you rejected my conclusion.

So, you can't say my argument was invalid---since it was an instance of MP.

So, you must say I had a false premise.

Since [2*] was stipulated true, then [1] must be the false premise.

If [1] was false in my argument, it was false in my portrayal of Morey's argument,

Thus Morey's argument was unsound.

Please, re-read my post, if you've studied logic you should understand it. read it a couple times if you need to.
