If Logical-Master answers all of his opponent's questions, he probably won't contradict himself

[color=red][b] Which thoughts or feelings make it so that LM today and LM yesterday are both LM, in the same sense, regardless of their differences? [/b][/color] This question does not compute. LM today cannot be LM yesterday if they are different. Thus, my answer is that there are none (in terms of what it [i]seems[/i] we are talking about). [b][color=blue] So the world is not, as you claim at an unspecified time, in your profile, an exuberant shade of gray, which, whether it is a true representation of your nature or no, is still composed of your statements. An, I will note, is a singular article. You have contradicted yourself at this point. Let's see if you'll do so anywhere else. [/color][/b] It's all about context. Fortunately, I said I would provide a definition if shade if need be in the following round. Indeed, I could answer yes and no to the question without contradicting myself. Clearly, when reading that quote in my profile, I am referring to the limitations of the human perspective of reality. It is because of this that people such as myself are able to argue in favor of so many diverse positions (at least that is what I think). When I answered my opponent's question, I understood "shade" as being the entire planet with the same degree of light absence quite literally. I personally do not think this. Thus, there really is [b]no[/b] contradiction here. :D [color=orange][b] 2nd question this round: What is an ideology? [/b][/color] Since my opponent was referring to the political sense of the term, I shall answer his question from a political perspective. Simply put (and I got this wording from wikipedia): [i]In social studies, a Political Ideology is a certain ethical set of ideals, principles, doctrines, myths or symbols of a social movement, institution, class, or large group that explains how society should work, and offers some political and cultural blueprint for a certain social order. A political ideology largely concerns itself with how to allocate power and to what ends it should be used. Some parties follow a certain ideology very closely, while others may take broad inspiration from a group of related ideologies without specifically embracing any one of them.[/i] [color=pink][b] Third question this round: If not then no? [/b][/color] Based on how I see a book? No. If my opponent wishes to know how I personally define a book, he should probably ask me during his next round. :P [b][color=red] Which figurative sense might that be? [/color][/b] I wasn't aware that there was more than one figurative sense. Still, regardless of whether there is more or less, my answer regards the only figurative sense that I know of . . . and that is that figurative translates to one or more literary devices being used to illustrate a point. If my opponent is aware of other "figurative senses", I would like to know what they are so that I may better answer his question. As of now, he has merely put me in a state of confusion. [b] Fifth question this round: What means are available for knowing you can see something a mile away when you are not a mile away? [/b] There are no means to see something a mile away when you are not a mile away when speaking in a literal perspective. With that said, let us keep in mind that when I made a particular comment in the previous round, I was speaking figuratively. The point was that I was aware of how my opponent would be using his questions in attempt to get me to contradict myself. [b]Sixth question: How does music die?[/b] I see music as having died to me in the sense that I moved past what I've seen as the [b]need[/b] to listen to it. That said, I can at appreciate some forms of music. :D [b][color=green] Seventh question: Can a generality die while specific instances live on? [/color][/b] Absolutely. Most unfortunate however that I don't personally feel a need to listen to [b]anything[/b] which I consider music. :D [b][color=green] What is your ideology in particular terms? [/color][/b] My answer: Some degree of conservatism, some degree of liberalism, some degree of anarchism, some degree of socialism, some degree of progressivism (sic) and some degree of communism (still thinking that my opponent is referring to the word from a political perspective) [b][color=blue] What do you mean by "Any position CAN be advocated no matter how absurd or wrong?" [/color] [/b] I mean it is possible for one to argue in favor of any idea (this even applies to ideas which people make consider as absurd or false).
