Ok then, if you're so dead-set against accepting that we were both wrong at the beginning of this conversation, then let's break it down to basic English pronunciation.

Provide evidence of other words pronouncing the "C" when followed directly by the letter "E". Now compare the number of other words in the English language where "CE" appears where the combination of letters is pronounced as "SE" or simply "S", such as in the words "license", "acceptable", or "evidence".

Go ahead, I'll wait while you do your research and provide some rudimentary numbers. I don't expect a breakdown of every single word that has the "CE" combination in them, as there is a rather large number of them.

Oh, and your false equivalence argument is, in itself, a false equivalence. Language is a much more adaptable form of communication than mathematics. Language can very easily change over time, whereas mathematics is much more concrete. It is extremely easy to provide solid evidence that "1+1=2". On the contrary, the spelling of a single word in spoken language is much more open to individual interpretation, as evidenced here.

I personally have no problems admitting that I'm wrong when someone points it out to me. Hell, if anything I tend to thank those that point it out to me, as it means that I learned something new and can generally provide more accurate information in the future.

EDIT: Corrected a few grammatical errors, as well as a few issues with punctuation.

Wrong.

If you refuse to even have an informed and intelligent debate, then I see no point in continuing this conversation any further. Your one word ignorant response has proven your own intelligence as being below standard, and I refuse to have a battle of the wits with an unarmed person. Have a good day, and I wish you well flipping burgers for a living.

i'm afraid that is factually incorrect!
