LOGIC CHEATERS

     Well said Mikel, however I am a 100 percent dramatizing psychotic
reactive son of a bitch, and there are certain things that put me into
immediate ninja mode, karate stance and all, and logic cheaters are near
the top of the list.

     People can spew all they wish about the beauty of dying and making
room for others, but people who say THEY haven't seen any evidence for
something and THEREFORE there IS no evidence for something, AND that
therefore the claim in question is false should have their tongues cut
out.

     I tend to be a tad Islamic in that regard.  :)

     But I am also forgiving, all the person has to do is admit they
tried to cheat their way to a debating win, and promise never to do it
again, and they get a suspended sentence.

     It has to be a clean apology however, no 'et tu Brutus', no
justification, no explanation, no reasons why, no "it was a mistake."
Just simply, "I tried to cheat, I repent in dust and ashes, and it won't
happen again."

     Sometimes logic errors do happen by mistake or sloppy wording,
these can easily be corrected and will be admitted to without question
and without shame, once pointed out to the errant being.

     Also attributing the intention to cheat to someone is just another
form of attribution of intention, which has already been declared a high
crime on this list, so sometimes its better to just charge them with the
lesser crime of 'mistake' rather than 'cheating'.

     However if a being continues to push bad logic once called on it,
then its time to expell them so they can survive alone with their ill
thinking, and not bring the rest of us down with it.

      "All that comes from God is all good.
       Man came from God.
       Man is not all good."
