Instead of looking up caveat, try looking up equate. Wink Shades

EDIT: Disregard, had two tabs from this topic and grabbed a quote from page 1 -_-

The only difference between belief in God and belief in Santa Claus is that eventually people stop telling you Santa Claus is real.

So you're saying that in your mind if one equates two illnesses to be a result of demon possession, then all illnesses must be demon possession.

Are you still in elementary school or what?

No, I'm saying that to "equate disease and sickness with demon possession," as you said, means that all cases of disease and sickness are caused by demon possession, and all cases of demon possession result in disease and sickness. That's what equate means. If that's not what you meant, just say so - but quit blaming me for taking you at your word.

Just go back and read the caveat post and tell us how it would make any sense, any sense at all, if it were read as you define it.
