That's a bit of a tautology there. If you say all the arguments aren't credible, that's fine. But now you're using an ill-defined judge of those reasons as an objective standard. If you laugh at all the potential reasons, then of course none of them haven't been laughed at.

That doesn't establish the quality of those reasons, just that people on the opposing side of the issue laugh at them, which in our polarized society doesn't necessarily prove much.
