Standards change.

Exchange rates are a standard

by the every changing properties means exchange rates are anything but standard!

So you got and missed my point at the same time. That's kind of impressively dumb.
They are a standard but the standard fluctuates, that was kinda what I was saying.
Did it make a whooshing sound when it went over your head?

Quote:but fluctuate as do interest rates.

No I was making a comparison. Like jesus apparently did all the time in his "parables" so I thought you'd be used to the concept.

Indeed when you write stuff down and say this cannot be changed you are left with some outdated rules.

And if a woman have an issue, and her issue in her flesh be blood, she shall be put apart seven days: and whosoever toucheth her shall be unclean until the even.

Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.

etc etc.

Quote:For example, in the UK we used to execute criminals but our moral standards increased and we stopped doing that.

People change God does not.

So you are saying that morality changes for the better except gods which remains the evil morality of bronze age goat herders.
So morals change and are subjective. Got ya.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
