  now the majority of people nowadays do no go by the hope of old times.

  now the reason for this is important and goes beyond mere words.

  our culture sees ethics especially national or civil politics as the rules and standards by which we guide ourselves.

  Well, that was the point, Saename. That the two were similar. Obviously, the scientific method and the Christian way of life are different, right and wrong are opposites, we all know this, but I was just saying and pointing out that each can lead to righteousness or wrongness from an objective point of view. "I don't think you took Social Sciences in high school... You'd at least know what the scientific method is..." I don't think it's fair for you to call people crazy just because you disagree with their beliefs when they aren't hurting anyone or anything. This does apply for the people who are doing wrong of course. I know what the scientific method is, again I'm looking at everything from a pure objective point of view.

  "Ancient history does not deal in proofs or disproof's but in evidence—usually very scarce evidence." Well, that's what I was implying, thanks. "I have no idea whatsoever how that could be similar to the scientific method" I'm saying that each are a system through which people see things as certain. That's all I'm saying.

  "which Viviane has been reasonably rejecting as well." These are just my ideas, you don't have to reject them as if I'm saying that they are the truth.

  "I'm going to go even further and say that... humans are not unique at all. We are different from animals in the degree to which we can use rational thought etc. However, that does not make us unique. We are different because of evolution. Evolution can favor animals as much as it did favor our kind. What is so unique about that?" If you don't believe that we are unique then that's cool. I however believe all species are unique in there own way. Just my opinion.

  OrphanCrow if you want to call it "blame shifting". That's okay. But I disagree. "At no time have you said, "oh, geez, I guess I didn't understand the terms I have used." Because I did understand. What do you expect when every time you reply to someone they tell you that you're wrong or you don't know what you're talking and attempt to ask me another question so they can tell me the exact same thing regardless of what was said instead of trying to comply at least once. Here's the deal. I'm looking at it in the way of blaming because it's my idea. I never said that my idea was the absolute truth because it's just that, my idea.

  Cool. But if I were to inherently say the topic at hand, the backlash might be worse. It was made in a way that I hoped people understood and some did. But the problem is that the ones that didn't insist on deducing me to get them to understand when they just don't and it's clear to me.

  I just said I wasn't blaming anyone. We just see things differently.

  It's my own work, Landy. That's why it seemed rather long because I wanted to explain, the best way viable. It took me awhile to bring it off. "You simply seek to blame someone else for it rather than realize it's your own lack of an argument that is the cause of your current feelings." I'm not blaming anyone, Viviane, I'm just saying we don't see things the same way.

  It's clear you don't understand my original idea, which is fine. If you don't get it, you don't get it. That's not to say you will never get it but you don't now. Frankly, this has gone so off topic that I'm bored to continue to discuss. And all you do now is say I'm not intelligent and ask me questions just for it to further go into this black hole. I'm not continuing to discuss with someone who keeps doing that. Off this.

  How many times must I repeat myself with you? I've explained it best way possible and you'll keep asking questions no matter what. It seems you're just doing that on purpose now. I'm letting it go because it'll never lead to anything at least with you. "Opinions can be objectively wrong or nonsensical." They sure can indeed. But even then it's opinion influenced on the opinions. "It was absolutely a complaint." To you. I don't put it that way. Yet another case of us seeing things differently. It's always that. Can you not see this?

  "What is a "superior nature"?" You say that I'm uneducated yet you continue to ask me questions to further keep telling me the same thing. I've already explained it the best I could. Please let it go. "Then learn" In process.. I came here to share my ideas. Since you and others have completely misunderstood them it has lead to all this off topic stuff. You don't understand what I'm trying to convey. "You're being nonsensical to claim otherwise." Like I said before, it's my opinion. "So your complaint is that the free gift of learning offered you didn't come in a pretty enough package?" It wasn't a complaint so much as it was a reason. If there is anything I am learning here, is that some people have no empathy but then again we are at a considerable age difference.

  You know what, you're absolutely right, Viviane. I'm not that educated post secondary and to be honest with you, never been particular good at receiving institutionalized instruction and need to get better. But I'd think you can share ideas without the need to be sparkling in it either.

  Animals can indeed be shrewd but that's why the word special was used. We have a superior nature to that than of animals. Animals just don't have the amount of hard judgement we as humans have and if you can't see that then I'm not sure what else there needs to be said. You said, "Clearly you do not understand the words since you consistently misuse them. Since you realize your lack of education and experience, attempt to learn from others rather than beg for mercy when you make bad arguments." Thanks for the advice but this whole thing is a learning process to me.
  
  "You should have said you felt I was acting a certain way or perceived that and then asked if it was so rather than make the claim" Whether or not I would have said that or not, I strongly believe you would have said the exact same thing. But that's just my opinion. "That still doesn't mean in any way that how you used the word was in any way correct." To you. "It was not." To you. We disagree here. Fine, end of story.
