@LutheranAnswers @lisavsworld 70 degrees?! Are you a lizard?

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@logicbot1162233 @Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist Completely illogical response lol

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Roydonsays @Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist You think Martin Luther was a nominalist who’s ideas lead to transgenderism is an existing scholarly claim? lol

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Freedomisdead31 @Roydonsays @JayDyer @megievalist He is making a scholarly claim while he himself is not a scholar. This is the point I’m drawing out of this. You can get your information strictly from a text and not have spoken it but I would not trust you to make a scholarly claim. He may though state fact

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Freedomisdead31 @Roydonsays @JayDyer @megievalist 1) when learning a topic in an academic discussion, you learn how to pronounce vocabulary from the topic
2) mispronunciation of vocabulary indicates inexperience from 1
3) he does not have academic authority to speak on the topic

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Freedomisdead31 @Roydonsays @JayDyer @megievalist Do you want empirical data on the relationship of depth of understanding and proper pronunciation of a subject or are you asking for the logical correlation?

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Roydonsays @Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist I contend that one who is actually well read in a subject matter who wishes to speak authoritatively about the beliefs of the subject has participated in prior academic discussion involving the subject and will know how to pronounce the word.

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Roydonsays @Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist It’s not disingenuous, it indicates subject matter familiarity. I would not take your opinion on the beliefs of John Wilkes Booth as authoritative if you don’t know how to say his name. An example of a name with multiple translations doesn’t refute that

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Roydonsays @Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist So you agreed with me that mispronouncing George Washington would indicate a low level of understanding and your counter to it is to present me with a name that has multiple translations?

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@bhanna4d @JayDyer @megievalist Tell Dyer to do that instead of insulting OP

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist I said he likely has an elementary understanding and not in depth knowledge, given his lack of familiarity with something as simple as pronouncing the name of someone he’s trying to cite

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Roydonsays @Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist Probably not, but if you pronounced George Washington as Gee-oger I will assume your only familiarity with him comes from reading a paragraph on Wikipedia and will not take your opinion as authoritative.

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Roydonsays @Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist Is dyer from Australia?

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist Bro the goalposts can’t go back any farther, youre already outside the stadium

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@PatelDwarma @Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist Interesting

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist In our world where familiarity with a subject typically breeds a proper understanding of who you’re talking about

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@slayorvizion Funny enough, you can be influenced by something to take an opposite position of that thing.

[Rick James @NHooser47]

@Freedomisdead31 @JayDyer @megievalist I think it shows he probably has an elementary understanding of the topic, yeah
