While I understand the absolute primal urge to stomp on religious texts used to propagate compulsory heterosexuality, I do think this exchange ended up a bit of a poor game, when it seems like he’d be mostly interested in discussing how the emotions of programmed thought might differ from ours (and that’s a fun well to splash around in, for a while)(though deposing of cult-friendly rhetoric is valuable too, even if you have to get nasty).
I’m mildly concerned about the Reign Of Terror Precept, but I also understand it. It’s just disappointing to know that the good faith of conversation has to be preserved artificially (ostensibly limited to Eliezerposting, which is more than fair. I can’t wait to read the Harry Potter Fanfiction Fanfiction.)
