I am just not willing to relable slavery just to pretend I am better than anyone else.
..And you do, that is why your mind closes tight around the points you have already made, ignoring the rest of my argument.
I want to defend Fair trade slavery. a slavery system that pays a fair wage that does not exploit the people working under it. we need need third world people working as slaves just as they need us to buy their products and keep them working.
Quote:I take my right to look down upon you from your own comments, nothing else. You can no more competently defend yourself in this regard than you can defend your god, and so, instead, you babble ceaselessly about the flaws of others...real or imagined.....just as you do for god.from all the material you just omitted in this very abbreviated response, it would seem you are the one having trouble defending your position! where is all of the pomp and arrogance of your last post now?!?, where is the proud propaganda deluded rhythm that told me no slaves went back to Africa?!?!, where is the guy.. better yet where are all the counterpoints you threw up defending your propaganda view of slavery?!?! Why haven't you addressed or even conceded the counterpoints I gave?!?
Yet you say I can't defend my points?!?!?!
Delusions of grandeur personified that's what I think of you Mario!
Normally I don't do a victory lap and rub your faces in the poo you dump in my threads, after i expose it for what it is. unless someone like you assumes that I don't know I just kicked your teeth in with History and or Fact, or assumes wrongly that something prevents me from kicking your teeth in after an exchange like this. Know i don't do the typical inzone dance that atheist do because i choose not to, not because i can't. And I am fully aware each and every time one of you backs out of an argument or defaults to logical fallacy to save face.
So next time you want to do a victory lap, make sure that you won the race first!
Quote:For me the answer is no. EVEN If it means I get labeled 'evil' by those who live by the rules of pop culture. To me that does not sound like an unfair cost.
Quote:For you the answer is that it's necessary, and that many depend upon it, that god allows it, and that all moral systems are insufficient and irrelevant to it. Or had you forgotten? I have to ask, are you now attempting to paint yourself as being compassionate, or in opposition to those things which you've spent page after page defending? Do you think anyone will buy it, after all of that?...
The statement above does not contradict anything I have said previously. I guess my last post wrecked you so hard you don't even know if you are coming or going.
