Right and wrong, along with correct and incorrect, with regard to morality, are relative. It's not a category error. You're just deciding to interpret...

Yes, your imagined "asymmetry". That's what I'm arguing against. You realise you just highlighted a section of what I said, treated it as out of conte...

No. It means that a triangle can be a seagull.

It's impossible to get to any stance being right or wrong without the moral feeling which drives us towards right or wrong, and without the faculty of...

So we agree that it's not right to allow hate speech? We agree that you're not right about that?

What about the statement that a circle can't be a square, but it can become one? Do you understand that statement?

Hypothetically. What's your point?

Oh dear. It's kind of funny that you're wrong on multiple levels. You're "right" only in your imaginary world, in which you are "king", and in which t...

Because, on this one, they're right and you're wrong. I guess I just have some glimmer of a hope that you might see sense enough to at least get some ...

Yes, until it becomes a square, like in the animations that you can see with your own eyes. And you're definitely trolling.

Well, sure, there are stances that I'd call correct, and I arrive at them through reason. But reason isn't the driving force. Moral emotions are the d...

You're funny. Change has to do with becoming. That a circle is a circle, and not a square, is irrelevant. It can become one. I think maybe you're trol...

You don't need my explicit agreement to get on with it. Just get on with it.

Yes, it was intentionally directed at Terrapin Station. He was sensible there, whereas elsewhere he says ludicrously unbelievable things.

No, you pillock.

I understand and agree with that. Are you going to move on to my queries and objections, or is this all that you are capable of? The law of identity d...

Hold on a minute, now you're being sensible again. How can you just switch it up like that? You're like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

I am very sorry that you're not only presumptuous, but incompetent.

How can I put this delicately? You are "different" to the rest of us.

I am aware of that. Aren't you aware that that doesn't matter as much as what does or doesn't make perfect sense? A crazy person might think that comp...

What do you mean, "again"? This is the first time that you've bothered to reply to me, and you haven't bothered to explain why you think that, or to c...

You didn't answer my question, but never mind. I'll proceed without your answer. A shape can change from a circle to a square. There are animations of...

:up:

What's that supposed to do with change? And yes, change is possible. I'm just about to change out of my work uniform.

A massive europhile, difficult? Never!

I cut that part out, like how I cut open my cat's abdomen and removed her vital organs.

That was crabs.

I vote for Hanover's suggestion, only without the extra space.

Yes.

I repeat, arguments which rely on cherry picking won't work. Cherry picking is a logical fallacy. I can keep on repeating that if you like.

If someone says, "I'd consider certain things 'criminal assault', and I'll give you a specific outline, a specific set of criteria for what I'm referr...

But I am interested. I'm interested why I can't get through to you, in spite of talking perfect sense. If we hadn't gotten to where we are now, with y...

It's not that I'm not interested. I'm interested just like I would be if someone was saying, apparently in all seriousness, that cats are in fact just...

His reaction to that is obviously, "Oh yeah, well I'll just define 'threat' to exclude that from being so". That's not an intellectually honest respon...

Why would I care about that?!? Any normal human being without an ulterior motive to disagree would consider it a threat. I don't reach my conclusions ...

Boris is doing a Theresa and holding a second vote in parliament which is bound to fail.

Sajid Javid blatantly contradicting himself.

I didn't dispute that. Everyone deserves to be ridiculed, simply because I find it amusing. Well, it's not like I can compete with you. Your comments ...

They don't, because the situations are too dissimilar, like in all of your attempts throughout this discussion. They do. You make the false analogy, a...

Nope. They're just doing it to be funny. That's their job.

Lolwot? So, when you go to see a stand up comedian, and they ridicule this, that, and the other, that's "founded upon a personal value system which de...

Then you describe it in a disingenuous way to avoid contradiction. It can be a speech act. If I said to you, "I'm going to fucking knife you to death!...

I'm going to stop responding now. I've given you enough of a chance.

It must be in the teeth, then. Surely there's intelligence there. Why else would we name wisdom teeth so? What problems could they possibly cause?

It's in the vertebral column. No, wait, that's a design flaw.

Indeed, it isn't tenable. It's contradictory. That's more than enough reason to reject his stance, however he answers your question.

Okay, well I'm effectively going to ignore you by dismissing your ad homs as irrelevant. This kind of reply will be all you'll get from me, unless you...

It's true, and it's part of U.K. law, incorporated into the first clause of the Human Rights Act 1998, Article 10. Cherry picking won't help you. It's...

I also hold the conception found in Article 19 of the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights. I wasn't calling myself a fanatic. Under U.K. law, that's cove...

I think they're great. Don't you? Who doesn't love homophobia and misogyny? :roll:
