When have I ever spoken about economics or politics on this site? Humor me.

So you're just going to complete avoid the contradiction that was practically the whole basis for this cute little exchange? Okay.

EDIT: You addressed it, fair enough. But, no, I'm judging you on the information I have. The information is pretty clear. You made a ridiculously obvious failure in reasoning in that situation. Whether or not you're "okay" with being a bad Catholic doesn't change the merits of your logic.

But you haven't, I never claimed that you had. But they're quite clearly my areas of interest; if you haven't posted anything about it, my default position is of course to assume that you're ignorant of it. I wouldn't dive into a conversation with you right off the bat about the legitimacy of defining aggregate demand as total nominal expenditure/income in an economy, and I wouldn't be questioning you on whether the Wicksellian equilibrium rate is the correct way of judging the stance of monetary policy.

So when you question my intelligence--which is quite clearly grounded in this area--and when you have demonstrated no prior proclivities for either politics or economics, then of course I'm going to question the basis for that judgement. Unless, of course, you could demonstrate any contradiction I had pointed out or any failure of understanding in my chosen fields.

Or perhaps you could take the most understandable and logical standpoint which would be neutral. If I haven't shown any proof that I'm uneducated about a matter, and have opted to not delve into a conversation then you have no grounds to make an assumption in any direction. I didn't call you unintelligent, nor did i make any statement in which I said I was smarter. You appear and act as if you feel superior, hence why I brought it to question, but I then stated I do not have a negative opinion of you. Meaning, you act a certain way, but since I can't prove you are actually an ass I'm not going to believe it. The same stand you take when it comes to my wealth, which is understandable to an extent. I don't come onto a forum, or this one for the matter, to discuss politics or economics. It's for a laugh and to pass time. I don't feel compelled to discuss serious topics, crucify me if you will. You seem to have a misunderstadning about who I am and make rash assumptions based on little information. Especially when it comes to my beliefs. I've never claimed to be a strict Catholic. I have every right to say I'm Catholic, even if I question aspect of it. What humors me is I don't go out of my way to openly disagree, and always funny to read a clear shot at me in threads i make. Such as your lack of belief I even own a car. If I was actually offended, I go on a tear and prove you wrong. That's not fun to me, so I play along and keep it light hearted. The fact is, I'd be impressed if you actually even read this instead of doing the same work around response.

Also, your calling out a lapse of logic in situation of doubt. There was nothing inherently stupid with my decision, and its odd to see you calling a precaution as a stupid act. I've openly stated that i felt bad about the whole situation, and that I wish it never had to play out like that. Mistakes were made and we were unsure, rather be safe then live a life wishing we made the decision.

I'll give you credit, I did not expect for you to give me quality responses. So I sought it fair to provide adequate answers. It's clear we dislike each other and have our differences. But I've been fair in the regard for not holding any of it against you, or really caring, because that would ruin the atmosphere of just having fun, my main intention on the forum. You like discussing about economics and politics. I like discussing about cars, and those that I own. Yet I'm criticized for it. I don't hate you, and like I said (which is not hypocritical by the way) I think you can be a dick, but I don't hold any negative opinions of you. Much like a friend that can be an ass, but you still call a friend. Not to imply that we are friends, but just an example.

Edit: Holy shit I didn't think I wrote that much LOL

You're just proving my point?

If you're adamant on the issue, then fine I'll go over your points and demonstrate where I think the flaws are.

Quote

your beliefs of me don't make sense.

They do, precisely because you're still hypocritical in your beliefs. The fact that you don't accept every tenet of Roman Catholic belief doesn't absolve you of the fact that you were opposed to an abortion precisely because you thought it would be murder, on account of the fact that the foetus has a soul, only to then think morning-after pills are okay.

There is a CLEAR contradiction there.

Quote

but clearly your not the genius you set out to be

I don't remember doing that; I don't care what you think about my intellectual capacity, I care about how it's reflected in the work that I do. I have no idea what position you're in to judge my intellectual capacity anyway, since you seem to know relatively little about politics and economics and I'm yet to say something explicitly contradictory.

Quote

and your high horse is what makes you laughable. Its an internet forum calm down, no need to throw around how your so "smart".

I'm not doing that, though. You're just being defensive. I don't have a high horse; you wanted my opinion so I gave it to you. Now you are going to incessant lengths to try and convince me that my opinion is based on misinformation, and you're failing miserably. That's a hell of a horse to fall off.

I'm not throwing around how smart I am, either. Calling you stupid does not mean I immediately think myself more intelligent.

Quote

Your a dick, but I don't have a negative opinion.

This is all I really needed to quote, though, wasn't it?

Here's the thing I fail to see. When have I ever spoken about economics or politics on this site? Humor me.

Also, sure, I aborted something that wasn't even there in the first place. I guess I'm a bad catholic, I'm okay with that. I believe what I believe. But I very rarely even talk about serious matters.

Your judging my intellect when I haven't even made an attempt to hold a serious discussion, mainly because its hard for me to take forum discussion seriously.

Taken any drugs recently?

I don't use drugs.

Then I have no idea what could be causing it.

No your just an idiot lmfao. I can say I'm Catholic, I can say whatever I want. I don't have all the beliefs, I've openly stated I don't believe in Hell because it doesn't make sense. And no, because i still attend Catholic mass, and believe most core beliefs. Such as everything in the Creed.

And no, I'm not getting defensive. Thats what your not getting. Im merely saying "this doesn't make sense for these reasons." I don't really give a shit if you told me you wanted me to die, or think I'm stupid. If I'm not putting any effort into posting here other then having a laugh and keeping it lighthearted I'm obviously not going to portray myself has a genius. Even though I've said many times I'm not, clearly.

Im not offended or bothered, its just stupid to me to have an opinion based of incorrect information, or biased information for that matter.

Clearly your incapable of continuing this conversation LOL

Does a bear shit in the woods?

not sure why I found this to be funny, but I got a good laugh out of that haha

Quote from: BC on July 08, 2015, 03:53:47 PM

Because I am asking questions?

There's a difference between inquiry and getting defensive. You could give your opinion of me, and I really wouldn't give a shit.

Quote

I just assign myself to it because i group up Catholic and attend Catholic mass.

So you don't actually believe in Catholic creed? You just assign that label to yourself because your parents raised you a certain way and you like the taste of wafer?

That's pretty fucking stupid.

although I'm not sure what insecurities your talking about.

The need to defend yourself from a stranger's opinion with a post longer than that opinion isn't a bad example.

Quote

1. I've never had serious debate/conversation on here to have my non spoken views be hypocritical and stupid. so...

You're a Catholic. You believe the soul arises at conception. You got a girl pregnant. You didn't want her to have an abortion. You were fine with the morning-after pill.

That's stupid.

Because I am asking questions? like come on lmao, if your "opinion" doesn't make sense I'm obviously going to call it to question.

And no. We did it as a precaution, we were unsure, 95% sure we were fine but I didn't like the risk. We agreed. Also, Im not a strict or believe a lot of the same things as a Catholic does. I just assign myself to it because i group up Catholic and attend Catholic mass.

Quote from: BC on July 08, 2015, 03:28:25 PM

ok

I think you play off your insecurities with humour; I don't believe you about your wealth; I think your religious views are both hypocritical and stupid; and I find you to be utterly incapable of any kind of extended rational thought.

You aren't uptight, though. So there's that.

First two parts, sure I know you don't, although I'm not sure what insecurities your talking about. If you don't believe me and crack jokes, I'm obviously going to sarcastically go along.

But 1. I've never had serious debate/conversation on here to have my non spoken views be hypocritical and stupid. so...

2. No idea how your can judge that I am unable for "extended rational though". If I'm never serious about anything on this site, then your judging me for not caring.

come on now lmao

also I always put you and chally on blast on snapchat. No fun proving you guys wrong if i can have a laugh about it on there. Its a cheeky game we play

ok
