Mormon: "There is no such thing as rape."

[John V]

Is there a commandment I don't know about that says, "Thou shalt not answer any given question, instead answer another question or ask your own question"?

No wait, that's the politician's oath.

No. For example, just a couple posts above, FAF asked, Are you really going down to the most reduced relativistic level where you really claim to not know why a functioning society is a good thing?

And I answered directly: Yes. Actually I went there some time ago. Look at what we're doing to the planet. One could easily argue that the world would be better off without our functioning societies.

FAF asked a valid question from what I wrote. PT OTOH included a non sequitur in his question. As noted, saying that "one could argue" something does not indicate that the person holds that position himself, and in fact indicates just the opposite. I responded accordingly.
