I'm a little perplexed as to how showing us that you aren't just spouting off half-truths mixed with lies is giving in to slavery. I am convinced that this is your "I won't admit to being wrong, but there's no way I'm right so I'm not doing squat" stance.

Your right that isn't slavery. I never said that was. I said that doing something other than I want to, doing it for the reason of "social responsibility" is slavery. here's my stance, my messeage in full:

If someone does something for any reason other than wanting to do it it's slavery. It may not be to a person or people, it may be to an ideal/belief. Doing something for the reason that other excpect you to do it or want you to do it is slavery. To do it because an ideal/belief says it's the "right thing to do" is slavery. Especially if, like me, you don't believe in that. To do it because you want to do or because you feel it is the right thing to do is slavery. The same goes for not doing something.Say if you guys thought I shouldn't eat meat because it was wrong to do it and I stopped doing it bexcause of that, despite disagreeing, it'd be slavery.

hopefully that clears it up for you. I know you won't agree, but that should at least clarify where I stand and that it isn't an excuse. Besides I've already stated this sort of view in the thread about Objectivism that DuckRand started. Check that thread for confirmation if you like. Back in that thread there was no possible reason for a "excuse" motive.
