It just sorta came out. But I was just being honest. . .Passionately honest. I'm just glad to see it did not go unnoticed.
Any more questions ?
Yeah, right. Passionately honest.
Just because you are passionately honest, of course, you sorta acknowledged my very last question, while completely ignoring half a dozen questions just in my last post (never mind all other in this thread still unanswered) and then, with "passionate honesty", asked "Any more questions?".
What really did not go unnoticed is your somewhat curious interpretation of the commandment #9.
Invoking ethical reasoning while basically strawmaning (describing something, that is not there, that nobody does), and completely ignoring deeply unethical and inhumane real actions of those, for whom ethical reasoning supposed to be a divinely prescribed way of life is hypocritical and intellectually dishonest.
Just mentioning. . When someone says ' straw man argument ' I have not even a remote clue what they are referencing. I did try to answer your question, and not in a particular fashion designated to you. I would answer the same way if 100 people were to ask it. You are not being treated with indifference. With me. . . You ask a question. . . I answer what I am thinking. My own family would get the same answer.
Do you really think that these type of comments should help you to advance your argumentation?
I'm not arguing with you. Right now I'm shaking my head in amazement over your patronizing assumption that, because I am a Jew, I should give more credence to something merely because you saw it in The Forward.
I'll be happy to show you straw man in your answer, if you are interested.

And I appreciate it.
Then we are dealing with a common problem - if someone does not know how to structure an argument properly, without logical fallacies, one by definition can not see when he structures his argument badly.
Naturally, if you don't know what the "straw man" is, you can not know when you use it.

I feel like I'm an Alice in Illogical Wonderland!
I'm not patronizing you. I simply give you the source factually supporting my argument.
Source in and of itself is irrelevant and is not there to "give more credence to something".
This "something" are facts. If you don't dispute facts, then where they are coming from makes absolutely no difference.

You are so full of... amazing facts!
