    ANECDOTAL FALLACY...

    An anecdotal or informal fallacy... where personal experience or a singular example is used to support an argument or position instead of compelling evidence. People often gravitate towards using their own experiences or those of people around them as evidence in arguments. It's natural to do so as citing scientific evidence to craft a good argument takes effort and most of us are lazy thinkers and opt for the quicker and easier System's 1 thinking versus the required metacognition of System's 2 thinking.
    You are wasting your time after saying you were not going to waste your time and to top it off border line animal abuse by continuing to beat a dead horse.

    Come up with a fancy term for that

    If you get hit by a train,you can personally say it hurts so who is anybody else to turn around and tell you it does not because they have a fancy explanation as to why it does not,it does not dispel the fact that it still hurt.

    Try it and see if your personal experience is any different if I tell you that it is all in your mind and then try and convince you that it is not logical to say it hurt when common sense would dictate that it would hurt like hell.

    Not that I am advocating that you jump in front of a train to see if it actually applies in reality but most that are book smart seem to lack basic common sense when it comes to reasoning or common sense,if it is not there printed out for them in the proper format and with proper spelling and sentence structure they become lost in the real world.

    You should put down the book sometimes and you may discover there is a whole nuther world out there that you never knew existed.

    Don’t be scared,there may even be groups out there that offer a 5 step program that will help you integrate into the real world and offer support so you are not alone,I have faith in you and it is not really your fault that you have been systematically conditioned to think that way,but if you really want to you can overcome this obstacle,break those bonds of mental entrapment and start living life.

    I will be here for you as an ear to listen if you have a weak moment on your road to recovery

    I do not view responding to you or anybody else as wasting my time,because your thoughts,no matter how far out in left field I may feel they are,are important to you otherwise you would not have taken the time to post them and who am I to say my thoughts are more important then yours. I do not have to agree with them,I just have to respect that you have the same right as I do to have them.

    If we all thought the same we would be nothing but a machine reading from a preprogrammed script that dictates how we think and not as individuals,then that script would come up with all sorts of fancy definitions as to why we should not think as individuals.

    That is what makes us human,the ability to think,act and respond as individuals.

    Of course if one is a socialist or comme then,yea,the objective would be to have everybody of one mind,because it makes it easy to control them.

    And one always has to take into consideration that there are those who seek that and will look for ways to make you conform to a standard of a singular mind or look for ways to justify in their mind that you are not a good person because you do not fall into lockstep with that.

    Tough world out there,always have to be looking at actual motives,the book teaches you black and white and not to deviate from those parameters,but we live in a grey world and things are not always black and white.
