Your argument, here and elsewhere, is entirely specious and is nothing more than drivel. You say that a tool-maker who creates a jimmy-stick (car door lock disabler) allows the jimmy stick to be anything that it chooses, and yet will punish the tool if it is used in the fashion to which it was designed simply because the jimmy stick has no idea that it was designed to do so. This argument fails on so many different levels that I have difficulty knowing where to start.
The best way to describe my feelings of disgust for this idea is to use a vehicle for a concept, especially considering that we ourselves are only self motorised vehicles. According to you and your ilk, we are all vehicles for some use or whatnot. A creator, creating the vehicle to be all-terrain or to be fuel efficient, then condemns the vehicle if it performs adequately in the fashion that it was designed to operate. The vehicle need not be aware of the limitation to violate such limitation, and therefore is condemned. Your circular logic is not only damaging to a single persons psyche, it is damaging to humanity as a whole. A maker of some sort being inclined to damn a person for doing that which they were intended is perfectly and exactly equivalent to a disturbed child crushing an insect piece by piece for the crime of not flying... after the child rips its wings off. This argument that is presented (i.e. that we have free will although we are created for a purpose) is disgusting and wrong. Immediately after islams inception, people began formalising lists of silly arguments that are used to justify the existence of sad, destructive, and dangerous arguments. You might try looking at these fallacies in order not to repeat them quite so often. Yes molly, I know. I called out someone that you "just love." Live with it or ban me, I'm tired of feeling uncomfortable knowing exactly what I might say that will offend your tender sensibilities. Or maybe just be consistent and warn them as well when they do the same. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""Minds Eye"" group.
