Theme: Deception

EXAMPLE: RABBINICAL ARGUMENT > JESUIT ARGUMENT

So for example, you just engaged in the following deceptions:

1) That the economic history of the world and europe has anything to do with being educated in a european country.

2) That taxation is equivalent to corruption and capital sequestration

3) That whether you are ‘convinced’ or not is a matter of the truth or falsehood of an argument – rather than a measure of your dishonesty.

4) The charity by the church, obtained by deceit, corruption, and rents was somehow comparable to the economic consequences of their corruption, deceit, rents, and capital sequestering.

5) That the (insignificant) rate of intellectual, technological, material, progress under the church was vastly lower, and that what progress that WAS made was due to the aristocracy and the military, metallurgy, and trade despite the church’s mandate of ignorance.

6) That Aristotle was somehow not practicing the european traditional method of legal-empirical argument, and applying it as a means of correcting Plato’s idealism, and that it is necessary to be of greek (now greco-anatolian) origin to categorize his thought as european.

7) That it was not the eastern non-roman empire in collusion with the egyptian and syrian that intentionally destroyed roman civilization through suppression of it’s traditions, closing of its schools, burning of its buildings, and murder of its teachers and rulers.

I mean, that’s a lot of lies in half a dozen comments.

And you want me to take you as other than a perfect demonstration of the abrahamic method of deceit: Sophism, Pseudoscience, and Supernaturalism?

I mean you just illustrated my point so thoroughly that it’s hard to imagine anyone could be that intellectually dishonest without studying how to be.
