Is nihilism the logical extreme of atheism?

[Whateverist]

Interesting. What follows should be some bickering over who holds 'the burden'. But, from your perspective, why should you justify your positive assertion to those who put so little effort into their casual negation. Kind of an object lesson to us. Okay, fair enough.

The point you are missing - and the one I made clear - is that I am ready and able to justify the negation. But I'll do so only after Frodo justifies his positive assertion which was made first. Making the argument about the negation and not the assertion itself is a sloppy diversionary tactic by Frodo to avoid the burden.

It seems we have reached the part with the bickering. I didn't miss your point. I dis-missed it. Did you likewise dismiss my point that whether or not we are engaged in a debate can itself be the question? And yes I can very well raise that question in a philosophy thread. Such questions are true philosophy whereas engaging along settled rules is indicative of having moved on to other subjects.

It doesn't look like Fr0d0 intends to justify himself to you as he has blocked you. Hopefully this won't lead to a bout of shitting all over the board, knocking over the pieces and claiming victory.
