@fmf saidYes, your rules applied to everyone; it is just your opinion, only your opinion.
No, KellyJay. Blimey. Have you not read or understood anything I have said to you over the last ten years?
The "rules", as you put it, are the same for BOTH you and me.
I too can only speculate about supernatural matters. I too can only offer subjective perspectives. Same as you.
Gosh. Have you really not comprehended the meaning of what I've been saying all this time?

@fmf saidYou are, in essence, saying, as far as my opinion is concerned, that your opinion
It's my subjective analysis of your subjective opinions.
and everyone else's in your eyes is of no consequence since all opinions can be
taken or rejected; they are, after all, just an opinion. So who cares! If only opinions
can be given, it doesn't matter the merit, since all opinions are just that only
opinions, we can go by personalities, or methodologies, it isn't really important,
they are, after all, just opinions; at the end of the day, my subjective analysis of
your subjective analysis of my subjective opinions on objective truths.

I care. To me, the merit of my perspectives matters to me.
Their merit compared to what, I hear you ask.
Well, their merit compared to your perspectives, for example.

@fmf saidThe topic of conversation is more than just our opinions, if you view it all as nothing
Of course. All you are doing is sharing your opinion too.
but opinion there is nothing substantive there, nothing definitive there, only an
endless speculating, ever learning, and never coming to the truth.

@kellyjay saidIf you are saying there is "nothing substantive" and "nothing definitive" about the opinions you express here, so be it.

@divegeester saidYou've heard of free will, yeah?
If it is universally objective to all observers, and you think you have it, then why doesn’t everyone in world agree with you?
Same reason why not everyone follows Jesus.

@divegeester said"To exist" is not the same as "to be".
We think, therefore we exist.
This is an existential universal objective truth about persons, not stones.
"To be" encompasses so much more than mere existence.
A stone doesn't think, yet it exists. But it can never state "I am ".
This concept is made clear when God said to Moses, "Tell them I AM sent you."
