    Yes, I do disagree with the particular dictionary definition which you quoted me.

    Facts are clearly defined by logic. Facts are simply shorthand predicate. They are meant to speed up conversations, so that one doesn't need to form an argument for every little thing, even when people completely agree with each other. That's why facts are referred to as being "accepted" or "rejected". If accepted, then the conversation can move along without forming further argumentation. If rejected, then further argumentation needs to be formed.

    That's how facts work. They are not universal truths. They are not proofs.

    No, that's YOUR problem. YOU are denying philosophy.

    So, it’s a fact that you’re a ridiculous tool.
    I’m simply using the word “tool” to speed the conversation up.
    “ tool” really means something philosophically different.
    Sure, we can play this game.

    Of course I am. The most useless pursuit of man (and woman), mere argument over the meaning of words. Get a life.

    They are ... wait for it ... alternative facts!!!!! That's it, they're what ever you want them to be. Gravity falls upwards, the planet is flat and god rules the earth.

    I used the term “run on” instead of “run-on”,
    because it’s more readable for mistake prone people like you. It’s my prerogative to address you as I see fit. Whether you think it’s correct or not, is immaterial.

    It is impossible to understand what you are writing because your words don't mean what you think they mean. :frustrated:

    You’re right all those neo nazis and white supremists were hillary supporters
    In those uneducated neo Trumper’s are dumb enough to believe that atheists think they lack beliefs just because they don’t believe in an invisible man in the sky who went poof and everything happened.
    I never looked back when my husband was behind me for fear of turning into a pillar of salt LOL

    all dictionaries really do for the most part are report how a word is used by the lay crowd today compared to yesterday
    Stop trying to force the words into your context and read them in the context he uses them. If you dont understand it then do your due diligence and study. I have no problem what so ever understanding every nuance of what he talks about.
    More drivel, there was over 130 pages of neoatheist 'lack belief' in one thread alone

    Reviewing Atheist 'Lack Belief' in Deities theory.

    I meet the definition exactly. I lack belief, I am an atheist.

    I am an atheist, I lack belief; if you can't show it, you don't know it and I'm not interested in somemanymostism. If you don't try to tell me what I believe then we will probably get along fine.

    I have no idea why but neoatheists cant seem to get anything right, has that propaganda smell.

    yeh the last thing we want is a language that everyone comes to the same conclusions when listening to the same words. Babel On! LOL

    The content of this post is just as fallacious as your prior posts and I am only using the official dictionary definition of the term as opposed to whatever imaginary "definition" you are randomly using.

    Furthermore the ONUS remains entirely on YOU to PROVE your bogus allegation about the Constitution. Your ONGOING FAILURE to do so is now on the record in this thread.

    Thank you for establishing that your knowledge of computers is on a par with your belief in Woowooism.

    Ironic that someone who makes up their own imaginary definitions for words would be whining about grammar.

    Thats what I have seen too, that neoatheists could care less if anything they post is correct, why is that?

    I thought it was even funnier that someone made up their own imaginary 'official dictionary' with 'official dictionary definitions'

    Probably because we are conversing with a tool of Trump who thinks that facts are only what they can make up when cornered.
    You have no facts, you have no references, just boring, repetitive crapolla.

    Make sense. How can you make a declarative statement turn into a question after just a comma ? It’s simething we see posted by a Russian bot. Are you ?

    Correction. There are a lot of uneducated people in business. But, they are greedy. The easiest college degrees are those in business admistration. People who worship BA like you it seems, worship on line courses. Just look at your utterances. They are self explanatory.
