Oh, so you mean you know that I think he doesn't exist because you see a post by me? Well, where do you get off assuming that the post is real? Is it just there in your reality? For that matter, how do you know that there actually is a computer in front of you which is displaying some comprehensible letters?

Cogito ergo sum

It's fine for you to think that I believe that this guy doesn't exist. You can believe that you are actually sitting before a computer reading posts made on an internet forum called GameTavern, if you want. But you don't have the right to impress on anybody, least of all me, that your beliefs about what my beliefs are are true.

Well, according to your beliefs Xantar, I should be able to do whatever I want, no? Lets not contradict ourselves now.

What I do know is that you could be making one of two arguments. One is that I don't have the right to impress my beliefs on others.

That would be correct Sir.

So I can't force people to accept my views about someone's existence. So what?

I never said you couldn't...

Maybe you really did just come into this thread and pick an argument with no point whatsoever out of the blue and take the conversation off on a tangent which accomplishes nothing.

Its takes two to tango Xantar. You had the option of not responding to me. You chose to respond. Don't give me all the credit for taking the conversation off on a tangent.

The problem is, as I've pointed out, you don't know that I actually believe that the guy in this article doesn't exist. Or maybe you do know (or think you know), but you can't force me or anyone else to accept your belief.

When and where did I ever "force", Xantar?

I practically sleep-walked through this entire post.

You mean slept-walked, silly goose.

I can keep this dance going all day if you want. Seems kind of silly, but if you want to waste time on petty nitpicking, I'm happy to help you along.

Let the games begin. Touché
