If you were really trying to avoid that situation, you would have not have written it here.
    I'll leave you two to work this out, Charles.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      No need to. I have already done so and your answer seems to suggest you had nothing of substance to provide when adressing the point.

        You're right, Charles. You're always right.

          So, unlike Trump you do not believe that CT are radical left?

            This may come as a shock to you, Charles, but I disagree with Trump on a whole range of things.

            Now, so that you don't come back with accusations that I failed to answer your question --- yes.

              I think it is worth quoting what Trump said about CT (calling it "ET"):

              "A far-left magazine, or very progressive, as some would call it, which has been doing poorly and hasn't been involved with the Billy Graham family for many years, Christianity Today, knows nothing about reading a perfect transcript of a routine phone call and would rather.........have a Radical Left nonbeliever, who wants to take your religion & your guns, than Donald Trump as your President. No President has done more for the Evangelical community, and it's not even close. You'll not get anything from those Dems on stage. I won't be reading ET [sic] again!" https://www.businessinsider.com/trum...9-12?r=US&IR=T

                I mostly hear you pointing that out when asked and it is often a rather superficial criticism but I know you sometimes point out you disagree.

                I suppose you meant to answer the question with a "No" and not a "Yes"?

                  I'm mildly amused that you find ANYTHING Trump said "worth quoting".

                    Incorrect. You asked....

                      It is definitely worth quoting. It is rather interesting to see a person in need of so many genetic fallacies and so openly giving away "the deal". It is not only "dumb". It is so much more than that.

                        Quite frequently, yes.

                          Wouldn't you normally answer such questions with a "No, unlike Trump I do NOT believe that CT are radical left."? or just simply a "No"?

                            No. You're not aware of the problem of double negatives? Yes, we have no bananas.

                              So, you mean to imply that if someone asks if we have more bananas and I answer: "No, we have no bananas" then I imply we have more bananas?

                                Yes, Charles. That is what that means. And who cares. CP answered your question and there is no need to harp on it.

                                Sheesh.
