"To judge someone to be evil or to have acted in an evil manner as you clearly have done is to implicitly say that they have failed to conform to a standard that one considers to be the good. You didn't need to explicitly say the words "because they do not conform" they are logically necessary."
I get up and I see more trash talk nonsense on my computer. Christ almighty. Let me help you out here once again, greg or e:
The fact that they DO exhibit vices rather than virtues and thus (as one of infinite corollaries that may gratuitously be inserted) DO NOT CONFORM to certain standards of right behavior does not inform this discussion in any way. It is a gratuitous comment on your part and is one of an infinite number of irrelevant corollaries that could be inserted. NOW listen carefully, please:
NOBODY called anyone evil "BECAUSE they do not conform". I listed several vices synonymous with evil as the REASON for judging them. NON-CONFORMITY was NOT listed as one of the reasons and it is OBVIOUSLY NOT A VICE Indeed, if one refuses to go along with some evil vice in a gang, group, community, or otherwise then one is eschewing evil and embracing the good and the right. And as I have repeatedly said, I admire non-conformists when they are eschewing wrong action (or evil, if you will). Do you understand?
That seems simple but nothing is ever simple for someone who will twist and squirm in every possible way to evade and obscure the truth, is it?? So I will treat you like a 3 year old and provide an analogous example:
I will make the statement: Thus, we see her (Rand's) most ardent followers displaying love, tolerance, affection, compassion, and other attributes of goodness and strength. Do you now say:
Praising and calling someone as goodness (as you have done) because they do not conform to your (hypothetical) arbitrarily derived moral construct is to use force???
My response would be: am I calling them good because they do not conform to whatever I may or may not be? Or am I calling them good because of the reasons I explicitly itemized as the reasons...because they have those attributes of goodness: love, tolerance, affection, compassion, etc.? Does the REASON (the BECAUSE) have anything to do with conformity?? Even a tow-headed child knows the answer.
And I would continue to query and inform you with the simple question:
Is praising them and calling them GOOD "to use force"??
Do you understand? Let me rephrase that: Will you stop digging that hole you are digging thinking you can fool people into believing your absurd lies? That if you just dig deeper and climb on the shoveled dirt you will find yourself back on the surface? Sorry, pal. It doesn't work that way. If you still put on the stupid-as-cow-pie act you will really cement your reputation as a miscreant.
