"Who's on 1st?"

It can foster/facilitate someone take up a cause to kill.

Ah is belief in an idea passive or active?
Is a choice part of the equation?

[sirs]

Still haven't answered my question I see.  But to answer yours 1 last one; passive & yes

Perhaps if you decide to illuminate the rationale behind this tangential arm of questioning, I'll be more inclined to discuss it.  Until then, I'd rather debate actual issues vs philosophical ones, if you don't mind.

How could a choice be passive?

[sirs]

I didn't say it (choice) was.  You asked if a belief in an idea was     

[BT]

I didn't say it was     

Really?

I asked this :

Ah is belief in an idea passive or active?
Is a choice part of the equation?

you answered:

But to answer yours 1 last one; passive & yes

So again how can a choice be passive?

[sirs]

I didn't say it (choice) was passive. 

You asked if a belief in an idea was passive or active .  I responded with "passive". 
I then answered your 2nd question of if choice is part of the equation.  I responded with "yes" 

Since you refuse to answer my question, I'm done with with this irrelevant dance

But irrelevant dancing is your forte, sirs.

This forum is replete with discussions that burrow ever deeper into useless vagaries, fruitless investigations and meaningless insults you have perceived others to have given you.

That depends.

Which I'm sure you'll be able to demonstrate copius examples of, since they're apparently so numerous.  Your "say so" pretty much means squat now a days, unless the topic is something that requires a quick google search on your part. 

So, by all means, start the path of rebuilding your credibility with .... how about 3 examples.  Perhaps even 2, if its, as you say, my forte.  The keyboard is yours

I sure didn't realize just how hard Bt's answering of my question, was going to be.  It......explains a lot

Thought you were done with this "irrevelant" dance. So much for your own credibility.

[sirs]

I was done answering your tangential questions to no where.  I was never done in trying to get a simple answer to a simple question I posed.  You want to talk about credibility issues?....best look at the reflection in your monitor

That depends.

Is a color blind person really color blind?
I am "color blind" but I can see colors.
So since I can see colors I am not really color blind.
So I guess lotz-o-stuff "depends".

Doesn't it depend on what the definition of colorblindness is.

I sometimes have trouble distinguishing between green blue and blue green. It depends on contrast and available light.

I have never been diagnosed as color blind. I can distinguish the primary colors fine.

But back to your original point.

Again it depends on what you mean by no choice. Does no choice  mean that there are not options to choose from or does it mean that the option to choose is disallowed.

So if given the choice to be colorblind would you choose it, or is colorblindness in your case not optional, it is part of your condition of being, and thus not open to choice.
