ten commandments...

[A Cup Of Tea]

nah, I just think using these debate tricks is not a valid way to convince others whatever reasonable/logical belief one has...

I wonder if there are any valid ways to convince other. Was it Gandhi who said that convincing others was a form of violence?

Belief doesn't have to be reasonable...it has to be useful...in my book.

Hm! Useful to achieve bliss?

 

[wil]

I rarely instigate bliss, however it does flow...

Convince, yeah...not convince, convey...

It seems some folks don't know when their chain is being yanked. Good one mate!

Chain Yanking? Me...? Balderdash! That was clearly 'Button Pushing'!

In matters of faith, seems to me that some of the quoted commandments of logic are unusable.

Four is not possible. In arguing theology one must, by definition, assume a premise is true.

Eight is also problematical. The burden of proof is on the person making a claim that is unprovable. For example that the Abrahamic God is outside any and all laws that govern reality for everyone and everything else.

Otherwise the other commandments of logic should hold, although we routinely see them being broken in many arguments on various topics.
