Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

More information is ALWAYS better. Even if it's bigoted, misleading, twisted, or false information. Can't ever have too much dubious information.

By the way, more bees is always better.

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

... Isn't it interesting that the LDS chatbot deliberately hides information? I wonder why that is, do you have any ideas as to why this might be, MG? Perhaps related to a longstanding practice of the LDS church deliberately hiding information which is not faith promoting? :D Perhaps the LDS chatbo...

Re: The Many-Transfigurations theory

And I understand that Muhammed is somewhat similarly supposed to have said to his followers nothing more specific than, "Rulers will follow me, render them your obedience." As you pressed 'submit' to post this, 160 million Shi'ites felt an involuntary shutter. Edit to add: I don't think even Sunnis...

I've noticed something interesting: while people enjoy poking holes in weak arguments for entertainment, they tend to avoid engaging with strong ones that challenge their beliefs.
Which is why you should avoid making weak-ass arguments. Sometimes strong arguments convince people.

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

In my estimation all these points being made are true. So, which list do we go by? You have seven and I have ten. Numerical win? 😂 Good times. Thanks for playing, Morley. When you decided to make the post ridiculing the mentalgymnast moniker (and me by association) what did you have in mind? Did yo...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

It wouldn’t hurt you to also recognize A.I. for what it is. A worthy contributor a to discussion. Since you asked me to, I decided to try it out, MG. I'm using the tool that you say is a "worthy contributor a to discussion." Here's A.I.'s response when I asked about the predicted trustworthiness of...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

Do people have free will in how they respond to criticism or a bit of raillery? Or are they programmed into predictable responses? A fellow I know compulsively sorts everyone online into either believers in a 'creator God,' or hopelessly nihilistic atheists. This same fellow has a seeming inability...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

None of it had anything to do with the question I asked. Morley, as much as I hate to burst your bubble, you’re not the center of my attention in my responses. I often don’t give as much consideration to focusing wholly on your questions as I do in expressing my own opinions and insights in regards...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

You aren't the only person that shares responses from A.I. to assist in conversation. But this is the first time I've personally seen someone get upset about it. Meh. No one is upset. When others have used A.I. here, it's been to laugh at and call attention to the goofiness of the whole thing. But ...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

You're throwing out an A.I. wall of text (with little or no commentary on your own) and asking people to debate it.
