Stop trying to be the centre of everybody’s attention.

Re: Lies are better than the truth
What makes you think I'm the "center" of everyone's attention? Are you suggesting that I stop posting?

Er … only a moron could think that “Stop trying to be the centre of everybody’s attention” entails “Stop posting”. Now, I know you are not a moron, Gary. Which leads me to conclude that you are pretending to be one in order to troll us.
Trolls are, of course, also attention whores

Re: Lies are better than the truth
Then what would you like me to do differently or say differently? How does one not be an "attention whore", by begging for your leniency?mickthinks wrote: ↑Tue Apr 14, 2026 9:31 pm Er … only a moron could think that “Stop trying to be the centre of everybody’s attention” entails “Stop posting”.

Okay, Gary, let me put it this way …
If you are too stupid to work it out for yourself, then there is no point even in your being here on the Philosophy Now forum and yes, I guess you should stop posting altogether.

Re: Lies are better than the truth
The only way religions can maintain themselves. It has long been the art of making truth the enemy and punishable if truth be told. Scripture guarantees the lies. The main reference for that is the bible itself. The final arbiter is not Judgement Day or any god but your conscience.
