:: You are only right to the extent that you are honest about not being repelled by a homosexual advance. I'm just not buying your line Deathy.
:: I think you are repelled by it. Perhaps I think that because I am too unimaginative to consider other mindsets. We can leave it there if you like.: Erm, isn't RD the best authority on whether RD is repelled by something?; in which case you are basically accusing him of misrepresentation; either for deliberate effect or because of simple self-ignorance.
RD could possibly be wishing to appear sensitive, cosmopolitian, and PC and at the same time win an argument with me. That's double motivation.
: The only purpose in being here is to debate; either you accept that people are telling what they see as the truth or you don't; if you don't, there's really not a lot you can say, since you cannot know anyone else's opinion except by what they write.
Thanks. Does that apply evenly throughout?
: Just accept that a) RD is telling the truth and b) although he doesn't take propositions up, he isn't particularly offended either. It may be incomprehensible to you; that doesn't mean it's incomprehensible to him. Personally, I find the idea of a God inconceivable; I, however, can accept that you do not.
: "no! no!, you think that you think God exists, but you don't really believe"; ludicruous, no?
Check my wording on this Farinata. I said his statement is true if he is honest. This allows that if he is being honest, I concede his point. I don't have to believe him but the statement grants due dignity to him while he shakes his head and walks away.
Mind that even if he is being honest it doesn't much change things. Even if Deathy doesn't recoil from a homosexual advance, that doesn't mean that most people wouldn't. Most people would.
