You are not wrong in thinking that it is a Gish Gallop in that yes there are too many links to refute.

Which is why I didn't want anyone to refute them all. And chose only 4.



Again, people who understand what a Gish Gallop is aren't going to be persuaded by anything you're saying, because they know the same tactics could be used to establish that up is down, or that pants are shirts. That's why 'harryh pointed this out to you.

You can't persuade people simply by being too tedious to argue with --- like you are here, where, when confronted with a refutation of one of your claims, you pretend not to have seen that and retreat to abstraction.
