This is the crux of the matter. My argument is not about the reality of the claims themselves but how a person deals with those claims as opposed to all other claims. If he came to believe that Skywaker was real because there was an action figure but he refuses to believe in Zeus even though there is a Zeus action figure than that is dishonest. Either believe in both Zeus and Skywaker or believe in neither. I have repeated this now at least a dozen times. Is there any way in the world that you can indicate that you understand the point even if you do not agree with it? I am beginning to think that you are just not capable of comprehending this concept.

There is the false dilema fallacy again. I can say:
"I believe in Luke Skywalker is real and I believe that Zues is not real"
That is a simple statement of belief, and cannot be a lie. The beliefs can be false, but saying that you believe it is true.
