Persuasion = unavoidable.

Persuasion = unavoidable.

Ding! Ding! Ding! :first:
Give this man a medal.

Non-coercive persuasion is well and good, and you're of course entitled to whatever moral stance you choose to assume :p. As long as no coercion is employed, and you don't try to enforce your standards on others, there's no argument from me ;).

Persuasion = unavoidable.
Enforcing = irrelevant.
Coercion = besides the point.

Can it be abused? Yes.
To add to what you write, it does get abused.
Some people who don't want their plug pulled are sometimes killed.
Illegally nurses and doctors do kill and I might be killed just for saying that.
I am for legalizing this just as I am for legalizing marijuana.
We should have freedom. But there are still consequences to actions.
Whether we like it or not, there will be consequences to everything.
We will give an answer to everything we do.

1. Can it be abused? Yes.

2. Should it be legal? Yes.

3. Can it be moral? Yes.

4. Is it always moral or best? No.

5. Will we give an answer to everything after we die? Yes.

6. Should we give people freewill regardless still? Yes.

7. Can we force or prolong a suffering one? No.

"Should WE give..."? WE don't give. God gives.

But subliminally you are.

But subliminally you are.

If that's the way you want to live and conduct yourself, great. Just don't force us all to go along with your own personal worldview.

Why are you forcing this?
You are pretending not to be pushing your agenda.

You tell people not to push.
But only things you don't support or approve.

You say you don't push your agenda.
But subliminally you do.

Trolls.

Trolls.

Trolls.
Are said to be random, off topic.
People have called me just that.
I am now offended by being called a troll.
I really do not understand why people do that.

That hurts.
It only means people aren't looking.
At how what I have has connection, meaning, purpose.

There's a noble truth in life: I'm not the boss of you, and you're not the boss of me. To you your life, to me mine.

My bossing you around would be pretentious and petty tyranny. Your bossing me around would be pretentious and petty tyranny as well.

I won't tread on you. I want you not to tread on me. As long as neither one treads on the other, we can each keep our thew, our ways and our freedom, and there will be peace and respect.

Troll = capable of answering real questions.

If you are capable of answering real questions, go ahead and answer my question.

I already know that.
If grandpa wants to die then let him die.
If he is suffering then you can put him out of his misery.
But I wasn't talking about that.
You are only talking about just that.
And I was trying to say "Wake up."
What you are saying is fine from a human's perspective.

1. Kill suffering grandpa? Sure.
2. Can suffering grandpa ask for death? Yes.
3. Can we put grandpa out of his misery? Yes.
4. But are those the real questions? No.
4.But are those the real questions?

Instead of running around the bush, why don't you just ask the "real questions"? Then maybe we can "wake up"!

Why don't you just shut up and go away? You're not fooling anybody.

Single-word posts is a possibility since I do have second-long video on YouTube.
Possibility? I'd say it's darn near an inevitability once you exhaust the whole single sentence shtick. :plain:


Why don't you [JA] just shut up and go away? You're not fooling anybody.
Oh, I don't know about that. There are a few people who think ASCon is reasonable, so anything is possible around here.

Wake up and smell the coffee, good to the last drop, because life is a mystery, so dare we not walk away from that and fool ourselves as men love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil and as the fool says in his heart that there is no real God as some do say.

I think what Granite said is now even more apt.
