Hmm, maybe. Anyway, my point still stands; all of us, including Charlie, should come down like a ton of bricks on top of anyone who seriously hints about using violence for selfish gain; doubly so when it constitutes domestic abuse. To endorse or tolerate unacceptable physical or emotional violence is in itself immoral.

Does this statement also hold true for those who would vote themselves the tax dollars of others?

Spare me your hypocrisy; repeating the current Myths of our Age does not make you holy. You disgusting, malevolent hypocrite; I never suggested hitting a woman - I outright advised against it, as did the original blog post. I simply acknowledged - as did Ferdinand - that stupid women who date stupid men enjoy being hit by them.

People such as you - 'rationalists' who believe all the myths of our modern era - are precisely the reason that this community has declined since Eliezer's leaving, into obscure contests to post the most inscrutable mathematics.

Go comment on the Amazing Atheist's Youtube channel; you'll fit right in there.

It would be wise for some of the other participants to mind that advice, since I think Aurini started out in good faith in this debate.

Why don't you try applying the lessons of that post to your own thought process?

Um... he's being more loud about it? ;)
