What I was trying to get at was that the litmus test is flawed.

Do you genuinely imagine you'll change his mind? There are people with whom you can argue and achieve, if not change, then at least consensus. Zackan won't be one of them.

When Hillary wins, four of the last five presidents will belong to two families!
It actually goes back a lot further and a lot deeper than that. Most US Presidents have been rather more closely related than you might imagine. I'm pretty sure that extends even to Barack Obama who, let us never forget, had a mother of European stock (largely English, no less).

So all I need do is inject myself with the blood of all the current living presidents to form... MEGA PRESIDENT X.

Absolutely not. If I did, I'd probably PM him!

To be content with something forced upon you, regardless of what it is, does not qualify whether or not it is acceptable.

It simply states you're content.
I doubt the moron is content, anyhow. He tells himself he is to maintain the party line.

I tried to drag people into self-awareness the other day when it comes to how we alter our opinions once we label ourselves, but I guess no one wanted to consider the problem too closely.

speak at a required chapel session?

"required chapel session" are words that should never, ever accompany a U.S. politician.

Actually, apply that to everyone on this forum.

There is not one soul here who actively posts who will change their minds, even when presented with information on how incorrect their reasoning is.

Just like there are people who will always vote Tea Party, there will always be people who would rather vote for Hillary, who hasn't even officially announced her running, solely on the basis of lesser of two evils. Regardless of policies.

Much like Nausi, he appears to be of the Tea Party mindset "You're free to believe what I believe and nothing else."

If we murder "bad" people, or people that do "bad" things, is it "bad?"

If you murder bad people, you are no better than the bad people you murdered. Or so the story goes...

Are you worse or the same? Should we use a spectrum to define "bad" or is an arbitrarily narrow binary designation better?

A) I haven't changed my mind, just my presentation of my argument.

B) I'm assuming Zeno of Citium, the founder of the Stoic school of philosophy. If I spelled his name right that is.

Damn, sorry, got my Greek paradoxes wrong. It was Epimenides of Knossos I was thinking of.

Anyhow, nice job maintaining the party line.
