Cult I was born into finally exposed.

This is a repeat of the question I answered. I'd be interested in your response to what I posted, rather than just a repeat of the question I posted a response to. Here is the long and short of it:

As for what "lying" means, and as you know because we have discussed many times before: I believe "lying" is when someone states something they know to be untrue in order to deceive.

It boils down to the fact that truth is only absolute when it suits you. Just another example of hypocrisy.

How does your "absolute truth" ideology apply to SecondSon saying he doesn't believe what I said about myself is true... which is the instance of alleged "lying" you have inserted you and your ideology into?

Go on then, "boil down" your "absolute truth" thing to some insight you have which applies to that.

I could be lying, I could be telling the truth, SecondSon could be lying, he could be telling the truth.

What does your "absolute truth" ideology tell you about this case?

What hypocrisy?

I have stated that I have done a fair bit of work in the field of helping victims who are victims of domestic violence, sexual violence, and sex trafficking.

"Lying" is when someone states something they know to be untrue in order to deceive.

What does your "absolute truth" ideology tell you and me about the truth of what I stated?

What does your "absolute truth" ideology tell you and me about the truth of anything that you state?

What do you think is the relationship between your concept of "absolute truth" and me telling you something about myself?

PS: Remember when you referred to yourself as FMFs lapdog? Doesn’t seem like much has changed.

I don't use the words "absolute truth", you do.

What link do you see between your concept of "absolute truth" and me telling you something about myself?

The word lie only makes sense in a context of absolute truth. The word lie is meaningless in a context of relative truth. But I don’t expect you to get that.

Nonsense. If I said I was a fighter pilot in the Indonesian Airforce, it would be a lie. If I say I am not one, it is true. Your meaningless "absolute truth" ideology has no bearing on it whatsoever.

The word "lie" is not meaningless. It means to state something that is not true with the intentionto deceive. If I said that I am sending this message from a building just down the road from you, with the intention to deceive you, it would be a lie. The word "lie" is not "meaningless" at all.

It would be a lie because it is true in the absolute sense of the word that you are not.

As FMF’s self pronounced lapdog (your words not mine), do you feel the need to jump to his defense at every turn or are you simply defending the integrity of the Dive lounge?
