Maybe I'll have to go through the 20 pages I missed because I saw you being nothing but respectful up to page 52. And I didn't see anyone violating any rules except maybe bennyboy when he said about CL maybe not being a woman. It might be considered a personal attack or bringing something too personal into the discussion. It's definitely not against the rules to tell someone to go fuck themselves the last I checked.
Yes, that was Benny, not myself! I don't think Benny deserves mod action for that, but I don't want that comment mis-attributed to myself, and I believe that was so implied by Luckie. I did make a comment in the past which CL got upset about when I attempted to play the devil's advocate in regard to the attitudes of clergy men, but I would not say anything that crass to her, regardless of how I feel on friends of hers here who have made her status rather offensively privileged.
Okay I see a lot of activity along these lines since yesterday, so let me set the record straight for those of you who haven't bothered to, you know, actually read what I said about CL and her appearance.
I never said anything bad about CL's appearance, nor about her choice of avatar. I said that people in this thread are treating her differently than other theists, and that this different treatment isn't due to the quality of her thoughts or logic-- since I don't see that there IS much quality to her thoughts or logic. I said people are treating her differently because of who they think she is, and scolded THOSE people for being shallow: shame on them for letting feelings supercede thought. I guarantee if I said the same shit about Harris or other theists here, nobody would even be talking about this shit. The fact is that CL has presented nothing but wishy-thinking, puppy-dogs and rainbows, and absolutely no coherent philosophical argument in favor of objective morality.
This is what I do, and will continue to do, everytime a theist enters the "Philosophy" section with wishy-thinking, and I don't much care how nice people think that particular theist is, since that's irrelevant to the doing of philosophy. I mean, look at the outrageously offensive shit Rhythm has said to me and vice versa, and we were at least attempting to put together logical ideas-- where was the talk of mod action then? There was none. So from whence does this double standard come that a theist can invade my precious Philosophy section spewing wishy-thinking with very little attempt to support it with. . . ya know. . . IDEAS and LOGIC and EVIDENCE and stuff?
