Whoa!!! I've never even THOUGHT that you were brainwashed, so how could I imply that?
Seriously, Aion, you are reading things into my words that aren't there!

I see systems of dynamic, of movement and exchange. Rest assured, you are not the first one to be appalled by the expression of my viewpoint.
There are actions and consequences, but I do not believe in any spiritual judgement.
THAT right there is the only opinion I have of you, that you don't see right and wrong. But you just said it yourself, and have said it before. So discussing this with you is difficult because you don't have the same foundation. That's the point I was trying to make in my last post...that most average people do agree on the basic concept of right and wrong. You don't. I get that. So if you don't even think there is such a thing as wrong, and don't see harming others as wrong, then there's no way you'll understand the points we're making.
Again I wonder if you're just skimming my words. I wasn't even referring to you at all when I mentioned brainwashing! If you read my post again, you'll see that I was referring to 'average people' who are generally brainwashed by religion, yet despite that, they do share a common grasp of right and wrong.
How in the world did you think I was saying you are brainwashed??? Aion, this has happened numerous times. You can't possibly be reading my posts...there's just no way you could misunderstand so profoundly, unless you were skimming through them and Not really reading all my words. You did say that I 'write a lot' and that you had trouble reading long posts on your phone, so I can only conclude that you must be reading only about half of what I'm writing. Fine. But do you see how that is causing you to reach false conclusions?
I read every word you write, if I'm going to respond to it. Please extend the same courtesy to me, if you wish to discuss. If you aren't going to read all my words, then please don't reply, based on reading only part of what I wrote and then jumping to erroneous conclusions.
