    As for getting insulted - perhaps you are unaware that 'what are you going on about now' is a derogatory idiom the implies the person is spouting nonsense? Unfortunately, I had already pointed that out and there you are, doing it again.

    That’s your opinion Jim and you know what they say about opinions.

    Just my opinion.

    I didn't quote you, until sparko came along and tried to say I'd mixed you up with JimL. The only reason your initials were in my reply was because the statement of JimL's that Pix misunderstood was a reply to you.

    Again, I purposely used "know" in quotation marks assuming that a reasonably intelligent person would realize that I didn't actually mean know in the literal sense.

    Your little buddy distorts that into an actual "knowing", pretending to know something about logic, and attesting that one cannot "know what is not true".

    Do you REALLY BUY that, Jim?

    As I said - people can "know" that the earth is flat - doesn't make it true. In fact, we know it's not.

    And, by the way, your little buddy claims that "Christians like yourself proclaim that they do". I would assume this is an insult to those of us who know we are saved, or that Jesus is the Christ, since he's constantly mocking that.

    That's the kind of crap you're defending?

    My reply had nothing to do with you CP. It had nothing to do with whether or not JimL's point was accurate, and I actually disagree with the snipe in it against Christians.

    What I was doing was defending JimL against the accusation by Pix that he said something he did not say. I was not making any value judgments on JimL's original point. Pix didn't understand what JimL said. I pointed out why, which Pix didn't like.

    I didn't. Go back and read again. CP made the original statement. JimL told him you can't know what that which isnt' true (meaning you can't know something that is not itself true), then Pix tried to mock him for saying you can't know if something is true or not. I've already explained it all several times Sparko, all you need to do is read through the text being open to the possibility I had a valid point to make.


    If you wanted to correct LPOT you should have used JimL's statement since that is what you were correcting her about.
    No Sparko, that simply isn't true.

    And why not just answer CP when he asked then?

    Because I don't respond to "What are you going on about now?" "what are you going on about" is a derogatory idiom which implies the person is just spouting nonsense.

    If a person asks me for a favor but insults me first, I reserve the right not to answer their question.

    JimL's reply, misundertood by pix and others:

    Well, that's just a logical absurdity, Cp, but then again, it is a CPism. Nobody can know what is not true, CP, although Christians like yourself proclaim that they do.

    Well, Jim, you definitely got the whole liberal "I am a victim" thing down pat. Congrats.
