msharmony,

People who are filled with hatred or paranoia don't care if their sources are accurate or not. They just want sources that will aid their hatred or paranoia.


of course, people want to be 'right',, that's not exclusive to the hateful or paranoid

but even those who aren't hateful or paranoid wish to be right and skip the research when posting the 'facts' that can meet that goal,,,

I agree, if one needs to research a quote so obviously improbable, they have issues

the post, however, is not about researching THAT 'quote' specifically, but just about how easy it is to post ANYTHING on the internet and why that leads to the importance of rechecking what we initially read for veracity


this doesn't man that obvious things have to be rechecked but what's OBVIOUS to one person is not so obvious to another, depending upon ones innate prejudice or perceptions,,,





You do seem to have a lot of personal issues, would a nice glass of grapefruit juice help?

But how would you know when you can't tell the difference. If you read different answers to the same topic, which do you choose? Would you really know the difference?



sounds like a personal dilemma,,,,

how each individual 'knows' anything is a different topic

this topic is the importance of RESEARCHING information,,,

According to most all your posts, you are the only one who knows all the truths and refer to the rest of us as ignorant and stupid.


sounds like another personal issue,,,

So that would make you massively confused. If this about the importance of "researching" a topic, and how someone "knows" anything is a different topic, then how do you "know" you are "researching" the correct thing.

And it is a personal dilemma, yours. I am able to determine the difference and "know" what I need to research. When there are opposing views, I have the critical thinking skills to be able to piece together the information and find the flaws leading to the correct conclusion.

It's like in math, 2 + 2 is always 4 and can never be otherwise unlike the new Common Core would have you believe.


okay,, so research is totally useless,, got it

don't know what got into me posting anything to the contrary,,,

since we don't 'know' how we 'know' than why bother trying to research at all

got it,,laugh

So is it "hatred" and "paranoia" that cause you to not believe anything posted that is critical of the great Odumbo?

rofl rofl rofl

and MOST of their posts, in my opinion , try to imply that I am likewise an idiot,,

its the nature of the internet,,and once again, off topic of what I was TRYING to discuss on this thread,,,


Trying to "imply", I thought it was pretty clear, but that is just me.

Personal, it is you that keeps on claiming "personal issues", not I. It is also yourself that proclaims that researching is using various and opposing opinions but then claim that some meaning can be achieved when you can't explain how to believe what.

But I must give you some credit, you practice what you preach, perhaps the root of all your confusion.

example of something that can be RSEARCHED< ad the research would find that msharmony made no such post,,,

,more terrible paraphrasing,,, and distraction


I miss the days of being able to participate in a post without vultures immediately responding with assassinations of character rather than reaction to content

the OP was written by someone else, I posted because I agreed,

from my perspective, its childish turning the notion that research is important into some personal tangent of sematics and philosophical nonsense

but I guess we can forget having logical discussion about how research is important,,, the vultures are circling with their distrctions,,

and Im out of Tylenol...lol

did I now?

when and where did I post either that

"I know all'

or that the 'rest' of you are 'ignorant'


????


lets clarify,,

1. I don't know all (neither does anyone here)

,,,,which is why research would be a good idea for any of us,,lol


2. Everyone is , by definition, 'ignorant' of something because they don't know all

but, I haven't declared anyone ignorant, let alone all 'the rest of you'
