Nope, since we have shown that if H(P,P) returns 0, then P(P) will Halt.

Your "set" of H's each take a DIFFERENT input, and thus your claim is a lie.

for THIS P, you have only a single PARTIAL simulation of the input, and
ne3ver get to the "infinite" steps that you claim, thus you are shown to
be lying.

You are just totally ignorant of what you are talking about, and that
ignorance seems to be self-inflicted. You have wasted the last 18 years
of your life and killed and buried your reputation under your pile of
idiotic lies.

You are showing your self too stupid to understand when people point
this out to you. You have FAILED.
