And my request was that you show me how you're confused by the quote in context, - in the discussion. - tpaine


My only confusion about it is why you are unwilling/unable to defend your position.


Good lord but you are dense.

-- WHAT POSITION? --

I made a very simple comment in common english, which you have some weird problem with. Explain YOUR problem in understanding my words, or give it a REST.

Hey, you missed my question. What were you objecting to when you said a "law for morality?"

Perhaps, but surely I cannot be as dense as an individual who reaches to the absurd lengths you do in order to evade addressing questions plainly directed to him regarding a statement he made earlier in the discussion.

-- WHAT POSITION? --

"What you regard as a law for morality, I may regard as a law against liberty."

That is your belief, is it not? I am simply asking you to specify why you believe that to be true and then consider it in light of its implications.

I have no problem with it beyond the perfectly reasonable request I have made of you to expand upon it. You on the other hand do appear to experience some sort of abnormal habit of making assertions on a whim only to be followed by a disaffection from defending those assertions when others question them.
