My statement does not depend on the formula you couldn’t understand.

I can see you not understanding the formula. But you don’t have to be a genius to understand this statement:

All your beliefs originate in emotion.

“I can see you not understanding the formula.”

And neither can you; because it’s meaningless, it’s gibberish. It leads nowhere.

“All your beliefs originate in emotion.”

Kid, I’ve been saying all along that FAITH is the conviction that one’s BELIEF is true. BELIEF, by its very definition, has its foundation in subjectivity; it can’t be otherwise. And subjectivity is personal, and based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, opinions, etc. Emotion is AN element of subjectivity; but it is not THE sole element of subjectivity. So, your premise that “All your beliefs originate in emotion” is simply not true. Some may be; but not ALL, which was your premise.

And you claim you were some clever witness in court, who destroyed the counsel questioning you? I doubt that very much. If you testified in court the way you are arguing here the judge would have declared your testimony unresponsive; and would have instructed the jury to disregard your testimony. We used to love getting people like you on the stand, because people like you were so easily impeached.
