You can call others idiots all you like, it doesn’t make you as smart as you wish you were, and no amount of it will.
So I'm naive and unsubtle but you still struggle to understand me. What is your academic background again?

I only called you an idiot. Well, I implied you were an idiot through a process of elimination. You don't need to keep dragging others into the fire. You're sufficient kindling.

Ok, then I'll keep doing it. But just to you.

Remember it so we don't forget? And be forgiving of others who haven't been so privileged?

We can't really banish ideas. Unless there's an island of exile for them that I'm not aware of, like Epstein's island or something. Or we live in a Philip K. Dick novel.

I still think I'm a homophobe? I should really have a chat with me.

Oh I thought you said it was case and point early in this thread. Assumed you were correct on case and point given your implication that you have a more impressive academic background than PepsiFree. My bad, carry on.

Good one. I'm sure PepsiFree is a road scholar. And by that I mean he knows how to pave them.

Yes I know. But in the context that my learned friend used (about PepsiFree’s ability to pave “them” in relation to roads) it would be roads scholar plural. Being able to pave more than one road would make you a roads scholar (plural) as opposed to a road scholar (singular).

Swing and a miss, again. You claim people misunderstand you, but everyone else is perfectly capable of reading your posts and understanding what they mean. They aren’t complex. If you feel that they’re being misunderstood, it’s not because you’re super nuance and subtle and the best reader ever, it’s because you’re incapable of communicating what’s in your head in the way you expect it to be understood.

Again, insulting people doesn’t change that.

So we can remember it to remember it? Deep.

Forgive people for what? Why would we have to forgive people for bad ideas if they actually help us know what good ideas are? Didn’t you say we needed bad ideas?

If someone believes being gay is wrong, and they learn it’s actually a normal part of the human experience just like being straight is and there’s nothing wrong with it at all, where do you the belief that being gay is wrong goes? You just want them to remember it to ensure they remember it? “Remember, even if you’ve learned that there’s nothing wrong with being gay, you have to remember that being gay is wrong.”

What if they just… forgot that being gay is wrong? or learned it wasn’t? Is it ok if they just do that? Can the bad idea just be gone?

And since a bunch of folks don't want to continue discussing this, and would rather troll, time to close it down.
