Are you 100% certain that you aren't mistaken?
Yes. I gave evidence for this. Both in the examples I provided and in the explanations attached to those examples

For example, when you are questioned to what exactly do you mean when you say some thing, then you reply that it does not matter and will not provide any clarity on your own meanings and definitions that you have given to words. But, when another person asks a question you expect them to provide as much meaning, definition, and clarity that they can give you, so that you are more aware of what it is that they are seeking.
Some times you say that that is just interpretations of words, which does not matter. Other times you insist that interpretations of words is of the upmost importance.
Yes. I am consistently inconsistent. What's your point?
Just about EVERY instance I have seen you have a discussion with someone you will disagree with them on their point of view. Even if you have agreed with the same point of view previously in order to disagree with some one else.
My point is the question that I have asked you; Does doing this help you?
I can see PERFECTLY how this changing points of views, and fighting for any view as long as it is in opposing of the person you are discussing with is, could help you in your WANT and DESIRE to WIN EVERYTHING perspective. But I am Truly curious how you think this could help you in your supposed "Betterment of humanity" goal, which you say you have?

Which is EXACTLY what I meant when I say you will pick one particular view and fight for that, but pick another point of view, completely opposing the former one some times, and fight for that view at another time.
Yes. I choose the view that is most likely to get me closer to my objective. Which is the betterment of humanity.
From my perspective, your WIN EVERYTHING attitude and desire overrides your betterment of humanity objective.
You have yet to disclose how DISAGREEING with people, and consistently taking discussions towards computer logic talk, helps in the betterment of humanity.
Are you at all able to elaborate how these things supposedly work together and help each other?

But you were the ONE who disclosed what you yourself do. As i just said YOU reaffirmed what i said you do.
Logik wrote: ↑Sun Feb 24, 2019 1:28 pm You also need to make an effort towards dis-confirming that which you already believe about me, because there is non-zero possibility that you are mistaken.
But I NEVER believed any thing about you.
I just expressed how you come across to me. I then asked you OPEN clarifying questions. You clarified what you actually do do.
You agreed that you do what you appear to be doing to me.
I NEVER had a BELIEF and I still do NOT.
YOU, yourself, have ALREADY confirmed what you do.

I am bettering myself and I am human, so yes. I am bettering humanity.
How exactly do you think that you are bettering yourself?
And, do you think that humanity revolves around 'you'?
Do you think that humanity will only become better if you better yourself?

You said I was diverting. I wasn't.
I said exactly what I wanted to say to achieve my objective. My objective was not to divert.
The topic is about you convincing us of some thing. I pointed out that YOUR argument does NOT have true premises. So, when you write things like:
When you are looking to buy things do you not shop around for the best product? You should!
Asking me what i do when "shopping", of all things, I SEE as drifting off topic. And then, especially when TELLING ME that I SHOULD "shop" a particular way, then I SEE that as diverting from the particular point in question. That is; your argument is NOT sound NOR valid.
If that is HOW I SEE things, then that is NOT lying. That is; Just HOW I SEE this.

EXACTLY.
So, WHY are some things complex and hard, FOR YOU, yet no thing is complex nor hard, FOR ME?
WHY is absolutely EVERY thing in Life simple and easy to and for Me, but NOT for you?

Once again, your write things to imply that some thing has taken place yet do NOT produce any thing to back up what you allege.
Logik wrote: ↑Sun Feb 24, 2019 1:28 pmI am not sure I can explain complexity to you - it's rather complex.
There is absolutely NOTHING in Life that is complex. The only complexity that exists is the one that you, human beings, make up and SEE.

Either speak for EVERY one, which if you DID, then you would have to be pretty sure of yourself. Or, do NOT speak for EVERY one.

Coming from the one that supposedly does not think in absolutes, you sure speak in absolute terms.
The human brain, although a Truly amazing thing, works in the most basic and simplest of ways. Just like a computer does.

No, you don't get it. I compute therefore I am. I am a computer. You are a computer too.

If you want to SEE the Truth of things, then you have to SPEAK the Truth of things. The Truth is 'you' do KNOW some things and do NOT know some things. If you do NOT define who/what the 'we' is when you speak, then you are NOT speaking the Truth of things.
I do speak truth.
I do not have to define it.
When you speak for 'we' and you have NOT defined it, then you are NOT speaking the Truth.

What you fail to recognize is that you are in a trap and I am the one trying to pull you out.
Okay, then that is great. If that is what you are really trying to do, then it would best help if you explain WHAT trap you say that I am in and HOW are you trying to pull me out of it.
If you fail to explain both of these, then some might wonder what your True intentions really are.

"That's impossible". Is there anything more absolute than THINKING;
"That's impossible". Especially when it is in regards to another and how they THINK and VIEW things.You have just taken this to another whole level.
Yes. I don't THINK in absolutes. I SPEAK in absolutes. That's not my fault. That's how language works.

Do you actually joke and/or laugh when you write things like;
I choose not to address you, therefore it is your loss? Or, do you actually BELIEVE these things?

You have NOT given valid feedback to me.
Besides that fact, you have MISSED THE POINT once more.
The point is if you are going to accuse me of some thing, then provide the example of when I supposedly done it. Just saying i did some thing, without an example, has NO weight to it at all. Although you sub and/or unconsciously hope it will, it does NOT.
Also, STOP thinking that provide others with valid feedback. If you have, then there would be some evidence for this.
I just want you, when you accuse me of some thing, to provide the actual example of where I supposedly did the thing so that we ALL can take a good hard LOOK AT it. Then if you are CORRECT, then you will HAVE readers to back you up and support you.
But you have yet to provide one example. The reason for this some might be thinking is because you do NOT want others to SEE what I can SEE.
