You are mentally ill and you are dishonest. This is obvious to everyone here but you. You're not bending over backwards to help anyone. You're doing everything you can to avoid facing reality. There is no need for you to copypaste the entire chapter at all. That is just your mental illness talking. If you were serious about helping us, then you would read through the chapter yourself, and then post those specific paragraphs where you think he is offering support for those things I have listed as presuppositions. But you won't do that. You'd rather make up excuses that you can hide behind.

The only chance for this thread to survive is if I post the rest of this chapter, otherwise we're going around in circles. I believe his explanation as to how conscience works is accurate because of his accurate premises which conscience is forced to obey. For those who don't want to read it, feel free not to, but I'll know whether you read it or not by the questions that follow.

If you were sane then you would just do as I suggested, and post the relevant paragraphs where he allegedly supports his presuppositions about conscience. If you were sane you would be able to recognize that he does not support them, and that you have accepted them on faith alone. The unanswered questions which will follow upon any further unrequested copypasting will be mine.

You won't have to come up with any unanswered questions which follow upon any further
unrequested copypasting because I'm not going to copy-paste under these conditions. You wouldn't understand the reasoning even if you tried because your preset beliefs that Lessans is wrong will reinforce what you are aiming to see, and you won't begin to understand why his observations are accurate.
