Needing help doesn't mean you're insane, it just means that you need help. Lots of us need help from time to time and it's nothing to be ashamed of.

And please, don't dismiss this because someone who wasn't me said something you don't like. Everyone here is an individual and speaks only for themself, not some collective, real or imagined. If you're really troubled by thoughts of demons then it's your own wellbeing that would benefit from seeing a professional, it has nothing to do with whether I said that "getting tortured to death is not an inherently bad thing"*.

*For the record I didn't though. As far as I can tell the closest anyone has come is saying it's not inherently morally good or bad to be the victim of torture, merely physically and psychologically good or bad - in contrast with the act of torturing someone which they regard to be inherently morally bad. That is to say we prohibit people from torturing, we do not praise them for being tortured.

These distinctions are not important compared to mental health though.

No, you didn't. I never equate them. I have always said : 'based on'. Not : They are the same.
That whole equivocation argument is simply false. It's an oversimplification, hence a strawman.

Your entire argument is equivocation. You have not always said 'based on'. As I literally cited in the post you're supposedly replying to.

And yeah, chucking the word 'strawman' at every response isn't helping you out of your dire confusion.

I never said 'they are the same' and I gave lots of examples that show that I don't mean that at all. So you're oversimplifying my argument. Strawman.

Master Lawbringer, whilst I have some little sympathy for you that perhaps something has happened in your life to cause this hatred and fear of women, I would like to point out that there are no demons, or daemons, as you would have it, only those that are in our own heads, and that perhaps you have more than most other people.

What if I told you that there's an experiment you can perform to experience them?

What if I told you that this is a forum specifically for rational skepticism, not ignorant fuckwitted appeals to magical bollocks to pretend to be special to strangers on the internet.

I realize that you might struggle to grasp this - far too many people do. There's an entire internet out there full of lunacy that will no doubt welcome your wibble with open arms. Here, no. Stow it.

Rational skepticism, not dogmatic materialism.

Nasty stuff.

I incorrectly identified the enemy. Daemons from Hell wasn't my first guess. Furthermore, I was under attack by them as well.
If you take that into account, it holds up quite well, what I wrote.

Words like 'nasty' don't mean anything coming from people that do not consider getting tortured to death as an inherently bad thing.

And in Hell, you can basically leave out the 'death' part.

Master Lawbringer wrote:
Yeah, and I challenge you to stop using the word 'equivocate' and to stop using the same old strawman argument that I've already dismissed dozens of times.

Master Lawbringer wrote:
And insanity doesn't mean anything coming from people that do not consider getting tortured to death as an inherently bad thing.

Master Lawbringer wrote:And if the reason you prohibit torture has nothing to do with how it makes the torture victim feel to the point where your morality is detached from feelings altogether, that means that none of those compassionate words mean anything at all. That's a hoax that needs to be exposed.

Thanks for the headsup.

I recommend that people who still think discussing anything with Master Lawbringer is not a total waste of time have a look at the thread he started there. All things being equal, they'll change their minds by the time they get to the end of the second sentence of his opening post.

That would be part of the delusion as no one here has suggested that torture is a good thing. If you believe some of this stuff, you really do genuinely need professional medical help. No one here has used the term 'insane' except you - you seem to find it interesting to call other people comparatively insane to you, but again, that's not something anyone else has joined you in doing.

Like I said, you prohibit torture so you seem reasonable.

No, your reason to prohibit torture is ... garble ... garble ... garble.

I don't prohibit torture because I am not in a position of judicial authority to prohibit or permit torture.

No, your reason shifted as soon as I poked at it. You're still not dealing with the fact that X action makes person 1 feel good and person 2 feel bad, so then how do you settle the supposed self-evident morality?

I'll tell you what the problem is: gross simplification. Your concept and thinking about this is grossly simplistic, and consequently you're producing grossly simplistic assertions you're unable to inspect.

Deathspell Omega is a French black metal band formed in 1998 in Poitiers. Their lyrical content deals primarily with Satanism on a metaphysical level – as the band has stated that "all other interpretations of Satan are intellectually invalid" – and other various theological topics.

Black metal is an extreme subgenre of heavy metal music. Common traits include fast tempos, a shrieking vocal style, heavily distorted guitars played with tremolo picking, raw (lo-fi) recording, unconventional song structures, and an emphasis on atmosphere. Artists often appear in corpse paint and adopt pseudonyms.

A plague grows, giving strength to life.
This is a miserable instinct of reproduction.
Humans beget their insects that will become Humans.
This pest and it's breeders must be exterminated.

Satan shall destroy the weak...
A total genocide is what we seek...

Why these feeble animals persist in cloning themselves again and again?
It just means that life as a whole is senseless, thus we worship Death.

We open wide the womb of the pregnant females and brandish the dead larvas.
The human race is a piece of flesh, no soul inside, only for His servants.

Bloody useless meat is what is left of them, never to give birth again.
Our King in Hell rejoice, proud of His earthly hordes, hailing the triumph
Of Death.

Sexual pleasure is glorified, it's fruit being cold sperm, not pitiful

To create life was their aim, to stab them all will forever be our role.
