I firmly believe Little Rik is wrong in his perception and ideas, so I want to help him understand. Unless he can make me change my mind. Which I doubt.
Yeah, I really don't know what his deal is, but his arguments are bad. His logic is bad and his premises are false. It doesn't get much worse than that. I considering reasons why this might be so.
1. English is a second language.
2. He is a child or teenager.
3. He is just starting to learn philosophy, so he's kind of in that "toddler" phase that all beginners go through.
If any of these things are true, I can say "Hey, Rik is alright." But if he's a grown-ass man, whose primary language is English, and he's been studying philosophy for years, then he needs to get some formal education, because the lack of it shows. Either way, it's intellectual exercise. At least he isn't spouting off about Kim Kardashian or some nonsense.
