Nothing is inherently evil, good and bad are subjective terms.

With respect to our exchanges, I hope it is clear that I'm genuinely interested in my friend's logic and yours. I truly don't get it and I really want to. I hope that you will answer some of the questions I posed in previous posts because I don't like failing to understand other people's positions.

Firstly, it's not clear at all. Because you need to also have some kind of humility that, although you believe in your own convictions, you recognize you don't understand the subject others are on about (which is powerful enough, you've recognized). Like, a good first step would be to grab the book mentioned above and talk about that.

Personally, I haven't really understood now why you are asking about this stuff, I thought it was because you hadn't made up your own mind yet but instead. If you just want to further refine and articulate your own opinion, I don't need to be here. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

So, I am genuinely interested in the subject, I know a fair bit about it and can help you find the resources you need. If you are genuinely interested, you know where I am!
