Quote:You could create your own logical principles but that in no way proves that logical deduction is relative. You’re committing a huge category error here.Whether or not logical deduction is relative is irrelevant, as we aren't having a disagreement over whether or not logical deduction is relative.
Quote:Morality is not defined by your opinion, that’s where your mistake is. I could have the opinion that it is not illegal to rob a bank, that does not prove that it is not illegal. Morality exists independent of our opinions.The legality of robbery is irrelevant, as we are not having a disagreement about legality.
Whether or not morality exists independently of our opinions is irrelevant (and a hilarious notion, btw) as we are not having a disagreement about the existence of morality or the source of that existence.
If you continue to insist that some moral principle of mine is incorrect, you will continue to establish the veracity of the statement I made. Argue with yourself all day long, I never get tired of pointing it out.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
