OK, Tim. I've read that paragraph 3 times. I've figured you out. I really don't have time for evasive games-and I don't carry the balance scale for evil..SORRY.

This seems to be your mode of operation in discussions with me. You form an opinion about what you think I mean then when I say you are wrong and explain it in a different way you think I am evasive. Interestingly I don't see this pattern much in either your discussions with other people (including others that you strongly disagree with) or in other people's posts to me. It would not be surprising if you called other people evasive all of the time, then I would figure its just your debating style, but you don't.

Do you mean, unconditional, perfect, and unqualified by circumstance? NO? Do you, Tim?

If I said that I thought murder was unconditionally and unqualifiedly wrong would you then respond that the definition of murder is one with conditions and qualifications? Killing other people can be justified but absent proper justification is is absolutely wrong in my opinion. Does the fact that I mention justification, for example allowing killing in self defense, make me a relativist in your opinion?
