1) Then I am interested to know in what way you think God created man on His image. 2) Then you assumed beforehand that you would shatter my reality without having certainty that you could actually be able to accomplish such a thing. :P 3) So you think that English is the only language people are "supposed to know properly". That is a very limited way of looking at things. I am not lacking appreciation for your argument, I think you fail to see the seriousness behind my OP to begin with. |
1) I don't think that statement carries any real value. What does it mean? Two arms and two legs? Eyes, nose, mouth... White/Black skin? It doesn't mean anything does it?
2) No. I state that a person adhering to the statement "God created man in His image" would easily have their reality shattered by a little introspection and analytical investigation. So, no, I didn't say that. But now that (it seems) you have indeed ascribed to that viewpoint, I'd have to say yes - your reality is very much in danger of being shattered.
3.1) Very ironic actually (your statement). One of the main problems with most human languages is that they are ambiguous. This is certainly true for English as well. In other words, one string could mean several things due to the inadequacy of the grammar. Your reading of my statement as " you think that English is the only language people are "supposed to know properly" " illustrates this point quite nicely. But NO, that's not what I meant. My statement extends to English websites, and English speaking people. No person who speaks English second or third language would have the audacity to say another is 'trying to sound sophisticated' as you have in this case.
3.2) "I think you fail to see the seriousness behind my OP to begin with. " And I gave you a simple set of arguments to show that the entire premise behind the OP is meaningless in its entirety. I should mention that I thought it was a joke(ish) thread at first.
