@fmf saidWhy are you asking questions again that I have already answered?
What do you make of the accusations that divegeester is bribing Russ to delete accounts because those account users disagreed with him and that I have deleted hundreds of subscribers' accounts because I am a secret mod and those subscribers disagreed with me? You have seen these accusations because they were made during your time here.
I have said I don't agree with those claims.
@fmf saidYou most certainly have back tracked and thrown Dive under the bus for good measure. Here's a quick recap:
So I did not backtrack and I have been consistent in my use of the everyday English word delusion. What's the problem with that?
1. You accuse Suzianne of being delusional.
2. You eventually concede she is delusional only in an every day sense.
3. You eventually concede she is only delusional to you personally.
4. You concede you believe all Christians are delusional.
5. You realise this includes Dive (who is not only a Christian but has also said he similarly believes in angels). Backed into a corner you announce him as delusional,...and throw him under the bus.
6. Quite unexpectedly Dive appears to agree he is deluded.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidThere are levels of delusion though, as you have conceded.
Because the conversation started with Suzianne being labelled by you both as delusional and ended with you both calling Dive delusional.
I think that is a defeat in anyone's book.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidIn what way have I "bactracked"? What claim have I withdrawn?
You most certainly have back tracked and thrown Dive under the bus for good measure.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidI only ever meant in the everyday sense. Do you really think I was pretending to be a psychiatrist?
1. You accuse Suzianne of being delusional.
2. You eventually concede she is delusional only in an every day sense.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidHow have I "abandoned" divegeester? How have I been "selfish"?
To "throw under the bus" is an idiomatic phrase in English meaning to blame or abandon a person for selfish reasons.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidThere are levels in exactly the way I have described on this thread.
Sure, but not in the way you have laid out in this thread.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidYou mean I have only been describing my own perspective?
3. You eventually concede she is only delusional to you personally.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidWhere?
Dive linked to a mental health definition. You didn't challenge him on that.
