A defining question

[Just A Girl]

I'm out... cos I can't stand debates where people choose to pick and choose at statments therefore removing all meaning from them...
I dislike being told what i'm saying, when i'm fully aware of what i'm saying, and that i must be wrong because a bunch of other philosophers don't agree with me.
If that's all your argument is based on... a majority vote... then it's a bit of a lame argument really...

Have fun... I'll be keeping an eye... it's pretty interesting reading everyone elses views.

"overly clear"...

I laugh because it's going to take me like 53 read-throughs to even begin to start comprehending all you've posted in your response to my queries. Your truth of "overly clear" and mine are clearly at opposite ends of cognition here.

I'm out...

Dang. You've made some fantastic comments.

I did? What statement did I ignore?

I didn't. I did suspected where your ideas came from, and refuted that source. If your source is another, then I was wrong.

If that's all your argument is based on... a majority vote... then it's a bit of a lame argument really...

erm.... what? In what way did I appeal to appeal to the majority?
