The fact that both of you want another human being to harm themselves just because you don't like that human beings views.....is evidence you're both evil.
Your the one that just tried to justify torture.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

I'm the one that acknowledges that torture is a tool commonly used by people just like yourself. Now perhaps you can argue that I am trying to justify severe torture....but then I can argue the exact same thing if you call for someone to be punished by incarceration.

One persons torture is another persons just punishment....its all just a value judgement.

The fact that you don't recognize mordant humor when you see it is evidence that you're stupid.

Oh, and where's your bona fides? Put 'em up so we can all see the hero you are, Captain Swivelchair.

You're full of shit Cato. I said it was a mistake for Obama to pull troops out of Iraq....the evidence of that mistake is that he is now sending thousands of troops back into Iraq. I never once said I want to put people in harms way for no good reason.

But at least you are not like the douchebag Parker Tans who tries to shame people into silence. You're just a dummy Cato...Parker is a dummy and dick.

Except that you definition is inherently wrong and I don't except it. Parker has already shown how your definition is differing from the dictionary definition, which I think is far better then yours. As yours is vague and easily contorted.

Lemonvariable......you have it completely backwards.

The difference between my definition and Parker's is the word "severe" which is added to simply justify the acts a person wants to commit but doesn't want to call them torture. "Severe" is so open to interpretation it can mean anything you decide it means. Water boarding isn't torture because it isn't severe. Water boarding is torture because it is severe. I leave out "severe" in my definition of torture because it doesn't tell us anything at all. One person's "severe" might be another person's "ordinary". The key and unambiguous elements of torture are this:

1. Pain or mental anguish.
2. Inflicted onto one person by another.
3. For the purpose of punishment or to extract information.

My definition of torture is short, to the point, and unambiguous. It is useful to me because it helps me to formulate a consistent world view. Parker uses a more nebulous...more malleable definition of torture so his world view can conform to his whims without any care to consistency.

Instead of coming up with a counter argument....all you could do is come up with disparaging remarks.

What does that say about your intellect?
