A few notes for participants on my podcasts.
Based on what happened during my
Podcast last night, here are a few “helpful” tips to make our conversations more meaningful moving forward.
Mr. Judge (Justin) did not call in to my show tonight, but he did leave some very rude comments in the chat illustrating he is not participating in “Good Faith”, so I blocked the special little snowflake with the annoying laugh.
Here are the comments he typed while I spoke. (When I blocked him, these disappeared from the chat).
Guests are invited to participate in this chat with short, concise talking points that quickly convey their beliefs.
If you are a “Me Monster” who talks in circles, gets lost in semantics, or are unusually annoying or condescending, this is NOT the space for you to participate.
How to avoid talking in Circles:
“…ask people to explain their reasoning—sometimes down to the definition of a word they are using.“

Talking in Circles:
“To talk about something in an indirect or confusing way that fails to directly answer or address something or which keeps returning to the same points.“
https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/talk+in+circles
I welcome debate but life is too short to listen to the semantics of a boring circular argument that does little good for anyone:
More:
“To argue a point by repetition of the same theme, sometimes by using different words, but without making any progress.”

I challenge all participants to come to this show well prepared and ready to engage.
You can begin your religious education by studying the scriptures:
