Compared to you I'm a positive saint!
Good, that's all any of us can do. And so it's not important how daft ones thoughts are.
That must be of great comfort to you.
Actually the question was obviously rhetorical. But OK, I'll take your word for it despite all your incessant lying.
You keep saying this but have yet to point out a single lie of mine.
See your nasty little psychobabble games, 137 matey!
Yes that is one of your problems, that you don't actually care for anything but yourself.
You are wrong, I just don't care for you.
Nothing new here, your protection fear racket (character armor), is showing as usual!
More of your nonsense psychobabble.
There you go with your self-centered-ness again, typical!
Says the numbnut declaring himself my friend.
It's no wonder you chose that particular response, as it's what you 'usually' project upon others.
You're the one who said you were Bill's cunning linguist?
There you go again believing only you can know another's meaning, is it lonely believing you're a god? Are all gods practicing atheists?
Well 'they' definitely appear to not believe in any others?
You are on a philosophy forum, as is Bill, if you want to think that what people say is not what they mean then that is your prerogative, me I like Philosophy.
I can have no religious slips as I'm agnostic. And only a fool would believe that Malthus's predictions were some how detached from his religious nature.
Show me how?
Fuck you with your demands, who the fuck do you think you are other than a coward that would murder children, to save your twisted ass? Oh yeah I forgot, an omnipotent god; talk about contradictory!
Yadda! Yadda! Yadda! *Yawn* *Yawn* *Yawn* with your incessant insinuations. Back it up or shut up.
That you and the majority are cowards, and you're counting on them, is no surprise. Sure cowards seek their own level, it's a very low level indeed. So I'd be proud to stand against such cowardice. The riddle of M.A.D. has escaped you, but then I'd expect no less out of a would be cowardly baby killer, that simply finds acceptance, and their moral compass, amongst the nods of an ignorant irrational mob!
Oh! Look at the white knight upon his high horse. You forget that it's you that'd be killing the whole human race.
You've been the dishonest one, not I! Actually you're the biggest exposed liar I've met here. ...
Show me turd.
Face it, you have more pull here than anyone, being a prior mod.
Bollocks.
And there are two sides to that coin, that which you might ask them to do for you, and that which they might volunteer to do for you, possibly without your knowledge. I've found it and copied it, but have yet to parse it.
'Parse it', you pretentious knob!
Your pet psychobabble theory quickly leads you to paranoia.
That you include a get out of jail free card, is clever, but lets face it, your track record speaks for itself.
Show me. As I'm about the only person here who publically retracts his words if clearly proven wrong.
Are you kidding me? Almost everyday someone is killed due to some halfwit emotional bullshit, as well as innocent bystanders. And in fact my residence has been cased by would be burglars, or worse, at least on two occasions. You're just envious and pissed because I'm ready for the halfwits, and you weren't and got mugged by one. The boy scout motto is, "be prepared," and I, most assuredly, am. You weren't, get over it.

By three actually and with no injury.
And you wonder why I would be worried about you if you were my neighbour, as from the sounds of it you'll be opening up with your mini-gun and destroying half the neighborhood.
Boy! Do I prefer Henry and his shotgun.
It's actually quite funny how your ignorant preconceptions make you look stupid, case in point, you assume quite a lot immediately above! And it's quite laughable!
Is it? Enjoy your civil war you little warmonger.
Again that you and the majority are cowards, and you're counting on them, is no surprise! Would be baby killers, for the sake of their own ass, share that in common.
Yadda! Yadda! Yadda! *Yawn* *Yawn* *Yawn*
You appear to fear the judgement of your philosophical peers?
Again, would be baby killers, for the sake of their own ass, share your resolve in common.

See above.
Pay attention! As a LESSON! At least I'm, very proud indeed, of my lessons.
To whom!? Some of us were marching and protesting for CND at the time and need no lesson from those who contributed to the problem.
What the fuck are you talking about? I'm not badgering him! Remember I'm living and letting others live here, except for those like the Goat boy, my only exception! That people are bound by various degrees of determinism, I fully understand, while you seemingly have no clue, and I make allowances for their inclusion, unless they threaten someone, and have proven to be the type that would probably attempt to make good on their word. ...
And yet this 'determinism' apparently doesn't apply to me? How convenient.
Bill is totally benign as far as trying to hurt people is concerned, I see that he is really interested in philosophy, and if what he says about his health is true, he probably needs it. ...
With respect to Philosophy, is he fuck! He promotes ignorance, illiteracy, alcoholism, drug-taking, illogic, stupidity, self-abuse, voyeurism of others pain, plagiarism, etc, etc and all for his own self-promotion. He ignores any attempt to discuss or converse with others and has been banned from pretty much every philosophy and political forum on the Web, the last thing he is interested in is Philosophy or philosophising. He should be on a psychoanalysis site as he'd be a star turn and I don't give a toss about his health as this is a Philosophy forum not a self-help group.
The reason I'm saying you have a boner for him, is because you hound him without an ounce of understanding, because you don't care about other people, (your words). People are just fodder for you canon of credentials, your belief that you're superior somehow, due to your schooling, and that people below you, that don't fit your preconceived notions of what one should be, should be cast out, ridiculed and abused. ...
No, they should be challenged on their opinions, the ridicule and abuse comes from long acquaintance.
And all this in the face of admitting you've gotten involved in the nuclear debate, stating that you actually did something once to try and stop it, yet that you'd then join the other side, killing a baby to save your sorry ass, so the nuclear threat may continue. ...
It wasn't about the nuclear debate you loon!! It was a standard ethical thought game to explore morals and ethics. You decided on your high-horse to kill all the human race, innocents and your kids included, I decided to kill one innocent to save my kids and the other innocents.
Obviously then, it was pure fear that you attempted to stop it in the first place, not some altruistic self sacrifice measure. ...
LMFAO! Is this you knowing about me is it? What a hypocrite.
Save your psycho-babble pet theory for yourself and you can keep your altruistic self sacrifice for the birds. I might dislike Ayn but she made a good point.
When I jumped into that raging river to save that girls life, that she believed I hated, I knew full well that she'd try and drown me instead, to save her life, as I was trained that it would be the case, yet I jumped in anyway, potentially sacrificing my life for hers. ...
Admirable but not quite the strong silent type eh!
This sort of thing is lost on your dumb ass, you'd never sacrifice your life, or your sense of what one should be on a philosophy forum, for another that may be in need of another type saving. You self righteous idiot! ...
LMFAO AGAIN! You pretentious prat that you think you are the white knight of the world saving others.
I know this line of thinking and compassion is lost on you, because you don't care, (your words). So yes your boner for people like Bill is your fucking them over because you feel your station in life has greater meaning than theirs, and that your believed aloofness gives you that right. You're the worst kind of self serving wanker, as I've said you use your education as a weapon, not as a means to understand both yourself and others, thus making allowances for those that may not have been as lucky as you have been. ...
Fuck lucky! I sacrificed and worked hard for the opportunity. I care about the harm that such as Bill promotes and whilst I cannot do much about gnus such as him I can at least upon a philosophy forum challenge his billshit. White knight twats like you are another matter.
So in the face of philosophical understanding of how determinism shapes people, you've proven that you haven't got a fucking clue, that you're a philosophical flunky. ...
And once again you appear selective about how you apply such 'determinism'.
And it's a crying shame that you need to try and hurt someone to validate your life's worth. As I've said, you're a sick fuck! There's no fucking way in hell that I'd kill that baby to save mankind from it's twisted sense of what's right and wrong, as largely mankind has proven it's an idiot! ...
No, you'd just kill the rest of the babies to prove your twisted moral superiority.
That those in charge only balance the books of others, those they falsely believe are inferior, so they can rake in their cash, and power, at the expense of their inferior slaves. It's the same age old song and dance my friend. The fear of death so strong, that people do the worst possible things to others so as to stave it off, how absurd. Have you read Ernest Becker's, "Denial of Death" yet? No? Then you'll remain an idiot! Yes? Then there may be hope for you yet!
I'll take a read but grand psychological theories don't appeal that much compared to the philosophers I've read.
Again, you hear babbling due to your ignorance, and in your case it's typical.
It's babble because you challenge my observation of a persons words with behind the scene psychological blinkers.
No, what you see in my red-herrings thus my strawmen is your denial or ignorance, one of the two. You're philosophically inept, with regard to understanding your fellow man. Must have been due to the A.I. classes you took, that's got you so far out of touch. That and NLP of course! Magic indeed, sheesh!
Once again you talk much about what you don't know, so much for the 'I know nothing' brigade. As I've told Bill, wiki is not the font of all knowledge and psychology is a pseudo-science which NLP accepts but you apparently don't.
