You basically said something to the effect of "Purple elephants are the best incentive for solving world hunger."

It was a pretty bold claim lacking evidence but your analogy is way off base. His claim has one missing step, while yours is a journey of a thousand miles.

It's hard to understand your point when you don't lay out a readable argument, but I assume your biggest grief is with the word "best" – ok, "good" also fits. Still can't see why it's so unbelievable to you. Maybe you have to think it through?
