It's not a stupid question, it is a question designed to show you that you are a liar, and maybe to help you learn your errors.
- lets at least be honest when its all here in black and white.
Your question, as you yourself said, was designed to show the poster they are a liar. Your main point was to prove they were a liar- secondry was that they might learn something.

The poster is question is obviously wiser than you, they didnt even bother to answer the question to which you already knew the answer.

This is your own interpretation and opinion of how you think IAMIAM thinks about himself, through your own filter.
To start with "He/she thinks he/she, he/she wants to be, he/she tries to be" are all indications of an opinion that has been processed through ones unique perspective built on current life experience, which does not render said opinion as fact but usually speculation and assumption.
It however reveals the stage one is in when one speaks of another in said fashion

There it is again. Do these people claim they are the chosen ones or are you deeming them as the chosen ones?
Why aren't YOU the chosen one?
I read a quote on here which is good for this occasion let me see if i can find it

Yes, you don't have to tell me what I said, I know what I said. You claimed I asked the question to make him look stupid, I did not. I asked the question so that when he answered he just might see he is not telling the truth (a liar), not to make him look stupid.
I did it to make him see his own errors. I already see his errors.... I was proving a point to him.

How is he wiser than me by not answering? By not answering he only proves to everyone he is a not telling the truth (a liar). He is proving he is a cop out. He is proving he is wrong. He is proving he knows he is wrong....
It was a win-win question for me. No matter what, I am the wiser. He is the student, and I the teacher.
The question was designed to show him... I'm sure it was shown.

What arent I answering? I wasnt aware you had asked me a direct question
So do you think your counter message is better?? Do you think telling the OP his time is wasted and doesn't help is a better message?? You think the OP hasn't heard what you are saying "all the time"?? So what makes you say it??

yeah keep telling yourself that lol.

Practice what you preach!
Are you insisting that nobody can learn their errors from random people on message boards??
Are you insisting that message boards are completely pointless in conveying messages, finding errors, and solving problems?

But the OP is.
: to urge acceptance or abandonment of an idea or course of action; specifically : to exhort in an officious or tiresome manner

If you think his message of doom is helping people- thats your perogative- I dont think they do. Scare tactics arent my cuppa.
Originally posted by lifecitizen
To answer your previous questions- yes I think by telling the OP to get out and actually do something instead of tapping out mindless dogma in cyber world is better than his message of impending doom.
Originally posted by lifecitizen
Well a message board has never solved any of my problems.
-if you seriously think the OP has helped anyone, well I shake my head. He needs to find himself a corner somewhere and then he would see just how well his message goes down.
So running into a burning building and telling people the building is on fire and burning down doesn't help those in the building? You are wrong.
Humanity is at war... people are fighting... killing... spreading hate... the world is burning in a figure of speech. The OP is telling people to stop starting fires, and to help put them out... yet you think it doesn't help. You are completely wrong.
So telling people to love each other is dogma?
Telling someone who actually is doing something (posting messages to thousands of people) to go somewhere else is better?
Capable of reaching people in places the OP will never be able to travel.
