(Oh yeah, yes, the last one. Good job. Use that sentence as a model next time you want to make a summary about your position on something.)

Whatever, asshole.

As far as “appearance “ is concerned I can only speak for myself. I have free will. And I’m not trying to keep up appearances.

If a 40 year old man tells you that he is a 19-year old girl, regardless of his appearance, would you believe him?

Anyway, please answer my first question too.

I would be interested, however, in understanding why drumdude, yourself, and others seem to have a problem with free will. Is there a correlation between having somewhat of an antipathy towards free will and being a non religionist? Do calvinists believe in free will? Just because something appears...

The post you quoted was an accusation. It may be true or false, but it isn't a fallacy. An accusation that is factually incorrect isn't a logical fallacy. A logical fallacy makes a claim incoherent or meaningless, or otherwise problematic such that you don't get to the part about investigating fact...

Let's look at the most famous example of a complex question fallacy: Here's an obvious fallacy, "Your obsession with teenage girls is designed to get a reaction and I originally bit." - Dr. Exiled Are you going to point that out to him? Why do you persist in lying about me? I was talking about 20-y...

Your obsession with teenage girls is designed to get a reaction and I originally bit. Why do you persist in lying about me? I was talking about 20-year-old girls in my opening posts; you guys brought up the teen girls. It's disturbing and I suggest that you stay away from high schools if you don't ...

It really doesn't matter how good the evidence is you brought to the table elsewhere. The rewrite of your initial fallacy is still a fallacy. Hint: It will likely be impossible to re-write your initial statement in any way that is not fallacious. Let me put it this way: if X is true and if Y is tru...

adding two fallacies together doesn't achieve coherence, it just slightly increases the work to untangle the errors. I think your brain is wired to detect fallacies in my sentences even when there aren't any. Not really. You are making it harder to untangle because you're not disclosing the fact th...

You literally approvingly shared a study, less than a few weeks ago, that provided a strong argument against it. LMAO! Well, I'll acknowledge that you are one of the few intelligent people on this board, and we can at least have a discussion, unlike with these other geniuses. The study concluded th...

"Consensual" doesn't entail "no harm". Plenty of consensual relationships end up being harmful. In fact, "no harm if consensual" not only avoids circularity, it doesn't follow at all. Subtract 10 from the second age. The problem is you're assuming a relationship between a 26-year old and a minor ca...
