What difference would it make if he could?
I go with what the Bible says. If he goes with what the Vedas say then maybe he can produce such evidence. So if something can be found in a 'holy book' of at least one religion, then it is OK, and if it can't then its nonsense?
Dasa's genocidal views are despicable and his extreme rudeness and disdain for everyone else is laughable. But you choose to attack his views on cow dung? And your argument is based on what it says in a 2000 year set of books? You are no more rational than he is.

The most stupid of men are the atheists who hang around the religious, searching for rationality.

I agree that it would not be a particularly fruitful exercise, and I for one, do not attempt to do so. But 'the most stupid of men' seems a little bit excessive.
So, given that you seem to accept that neither you nor Dasa are rational, what is the point of holding a conversation with him? There is almost zero chance of either of you convincing the other that they are in the right. That suggests you have some other purpose here. What might that be?

So tell me .. why cant two people who you consider to be irrational carry on a conversation, and why cannot one convince the other, bearing in mind that they are similarly irrational.

I am sure you can hold a conversation. It just won't be very fruitful.
I do not expect one to convince the other because neither has anything that the other holds as his primary doctrine and since you both rely on doctrine as your measure of 'truth', neither has a hope of convincing the other unless one of you magically changes his mind about which is the correct 'holy book'.
Certainly using references to science or rational argument hasn't a hope.

Did someone appoint you moderator of the irrational posters on this site? No? Then please mind your own business.
Originally posted by Rajk999 Thank you. I rest my case.
Can you imagine the situation if all of the 7,000,000,000 people on this planet believed and followed this so-called true religion of yours? What would happen to the urine and stool of this precious cow? The price would skyrocket.
Oh and the cow is probably your mother, definitely not mine.

They certainly don't eat red meat.
Red meat is given to them by ignorant parents who are child abusers.
