Well, there is that, of course. I am also reasonably certain that I was born. That makes 2 things. I'm not certain that all this uncertainty is warranted.

There isn't "range" of monarchies anymore than there is a range of 'tails' in a flip of a coin- it is either a tails or it isn't.

"The monarch of Great Britain is much more powerful than the monarch of Sweden."

Range.

Since when does your Sun rise in the North?

Excluded Middle Fallacy, again.

Why is it that you seem to consider such fallacies to be unanswerable arguments?

They're not.

Oh, and look up the difference between "debate" and "contradiction" - you're on the wrong side of that fence, too.

Of course you don't want to address your lie- the misquote- above.

It isn't something that is debateable.

You lied.

I cannot help you do not know what a excluded middle fallacy is.

And the first condition of a excluded middle fallacy is: there is more than two conditions, i.e., a third.

A country is or is not a monarchy.

A flip of a coin results in either a heads or a tails.

No matter how hard you stomp your feet...

And you are a liar, BTW.

Of course, we can further demonstrate what the "excluded middle" fallacy is by using what a quote is and isn't.

A quote is the exact words of a person as they were said or written. To add or delete (to change) what a person said or wrote and attempt to pass it off as a quote is of course a lie.

So either something is a quote, or it isn't a quote.

This doesn't require your agreement, by the way.

If you try to pass off something as a quote (specifically when it is marked as such) and it isn't EXACTLY the same, then it isn't a quote.

There is no middle ground, there is no third option. There is no fallacy in asking whether or not something was or was not a quote.

Range.

There is no range in the state being a monarchy, dullard. There is a range in the power that the monarch can exercise.

You do remember this?

mon·ar·chy
[mon-er-kee] noun, plural mon·ar·chies.
1. a state or nation in which the supreme power is actually or nominally lodged in a monarch. Compare absolute monarchy, limited monarchy.

Do try to note that an absolute monarchy and a nominal monarchy are- and this seems to be the tricky part for you- MONARCHIES.

PS: Thanks for providing me the opportunity again to prove you t0o be a liar.

See, you ARE engaging in the fallacy of the excluded middle. It is possible for a country to be both. As both Sweden and the UK testify to.

Yet another logical fallacy...that because one example fits your assertion, EVERY example fits your assertion.

So...the mammals known as beagles are dogs, therefore every mammal must be a dog. How silly.

An edge is not a side.

But I am a sport: you start flipping a coin now. when you get that coin to land and stand on it's edge on a flat surface, I'll stop posting on this thread.

Until you do: you agree to stop posting here.

Agreed?

Let me know: happy to work out the details...
