How long do you intend to keep denying that I’m right and you can’t prove me wrong within the constraints I’ve set? |

DarkDespair5 Posted: That’s what I’ve been trying to get him to grasp. It’s a self-contradictory concept. But, like all faithers, he believes that he can make the impossible be possible just by wishing it to be.
But wishes are useless.

Why don’t you just provide a Venn diagram since that is what your arguments equate to. |

Hobart Bliggity Posted: hammering you on believing that you can have something self-contradictory actually exist? As long as you wish to keep positing it.
You don’t get to try to be all cutesie-pie and think that you can weasel your way out of this by arbitrarily constraining things and ignoring the definitions. That just won’t do. You will either face the definitions or I’ll keep hammering you with them. It’s just that simple. Your choice is before you. |

I freaking posted the definitions of a square and a circle. A square cannot be a circle. A circle cannot be a square.
THEREFORE: You CANNOT draw a square circle! It’s bulletproof logic! |

Blind faith in logic, believing that that which cannot be imagined or seems to defy the rules and definitions we’ve set for this universeis impossible, is one of the most simple and narrow-minded views one can have in this life. I’m sorry that you can’t fathom anything beyond your meager comprehension, and while you seem rather intelligent, you also seem to let that intelligence limit you.
Yes, of course a “square circle” as we have defined it is ridiculous, but refusing to believe that something could exist outside of our understanding of the universe is just, well, stupid. To think we know anything for certain is a fallacy. All we have are our perceptions and definitions to try and make sense of them. To believe that these primitive facilities can understand and define the universe is foolish. |
