There is no deception Ace. His entire line of questioning is stupid and OBVIOUS baiting. He believes that only the people who endorse HIS god and HIS religion can have a purpose in life. See enjoying life is not a good enough purpose to him so therefore it is not an acceptable answer. You see, like all arguments with Statler, HE decides what's legitimate and what's allowed. HE decides whether or not you can even have a purpose without his god. You see, like Lucent, he is an arrogant SOB who will consider nothing but his own views as valid.
Besides, he can't allow you to have a purpose in life ... because that would serve to nullify his relationship with his god.
...and now directly at Statler:
This entire line of questioning is so pointless it seems to be obvious baiting. As they say in the ghetto ... "you need to chill out and check yoself"
seriously, even for you, it's some seriously stupid shit.
