Do you believe in God? Why/Why not?

And this is what you keep doing.  Insisting that anyone who disagrees with you is wrong without actually being able to explain why.  And this is probably why your interactions with everyone are so testy.

Your conclusion is absolutely that there is a god.  I quoted you on that twice now since you don't seem to know your own argument as well as I do.  So that part of my post is 100% demonstrable correct.  

Here is a definition of validity from the internet encyclopedia of philosophy.   

"A deductive argument is said to be valid if and only if it takes a form that makes it impossible for the premises to be true and the conclusion nevertheless to be false. Otherwise, a deductive argument is said to be invalid."

If you presented an argument that ends in god, but (and I'll quote you again) " the deductive Cosmological argument ends at the necessary being" than your argument is clearly invalid, because it does not end at the conclusion.

Perhaps I simply don't possess your superior logical acumen, but I fail to see how anything I said was wrong. I would suggest you practice some epistemological modesty and brush up on logic 101.

As a silent observer of this argument, I want to say that you are right and he is wrong. I also doubt that he would buy any one of us a beer.

Trust me, I'd happily discuss this in person. I can't help it people don't get the entire argument (now spread out over more then 20 pages) and keep turning the argument back on itself.
