Never. I edited and gave you the credit.

But I doubt you picked the better title for the thread. Good thing I followed up.

lol, what can I say, I'm a little rusty.

Heyy don't you have a deviantart account? What is it? I wanna follow you.

WHOOPS. Fixing now

It's not really my birthday though.

But even in the sense of desiring consistency, is it still a valid sort of argument to make to imply that everything has to be consistent or none of it's true? Especially in the case of a book, even if it wasn't the bible, if you were reading a nonfiction book on spiders and one of the things stated was symbolic language and if it were stated to be a fact it would be out of context, whereas the rest of the book all said what it meant, would that still be a valid conclusion to make?

Well, the context is, that the guy was critiquing how religious people will say that when references like how you should stone people who cheat to death are 'taken out of context' and don't mean what it literally says. He said on the other hand phrases like 'love your neighbor as you do yourself' aren't ever said to be taken out of context and they're acted to be literal, so he said religious people can't have it both ways, that if one of the things are taken out of context then all of it has to be taken out of context or none of it is. I thought that was the stupidest argument I'd ever heard. Just because one things is false doesn't prove everything else is.

hey, off the top of your head, do you know if there's some name for a type of fallacy where the person posing the argument is basically saying: if this particular fact is false, then everything (including the rest of the facts) have to be false

Thank you

Welcome back!

Hey, I haven't seen you on the forums lately. Hope you're doing okay.

Mooohhhiiiccaaaaannn.

If you reset sonyab's ban today, and set it for 30 days, it will clock out in the 45 days that she asked for :becky:.

Lost, did you guys get rid of Shai? This is Liam (Wolf, Evolyptic, Etc Etc Etc.) ENTP that shai brought to the site along time ago. Caused a big ruckus over not being able to change the color/bold my font. I really need to get in touch with him.

:dance: :dance: :dance:

That is sad to hear! Things are going great now :dance:

I REJECT THE TRUTH!

Looks like someone else aready added you. Sorry for the delay, I ended up going out to lunch with Kav.

Either your privacy settings are too tight, or you need to be friends with someone in the group to add you because I can't see anything about requests or adding you. I'll keep looking incase I miss something,.

Tuesday isn't the same as Valentine's day. I am afraid we missed our chance to make this right! :drama:

*sigh* my biggest pet-peeve with text chats and messages. More appropriate than nothing in particular. It seemed fitting for two people who like clever references in general...but now I am bummed out by the fact that we had to explain the meaning to one another. hwell:
