Rabbits do "chew the cud".

[OldWiseGuy]

So precious how much latitude you give yourself when "supporting" middle eastern numerologist lore.

I'm all about latitude.

 

[OldWiseGuy]

No you are not.

I'm a great teacher, except on the forums.

Unfortunately my students aren't so good at learning what I'm teaching.

Are @juvenissun's sock puppet?

Of course. They say it's 'kinda sorta' like it though, which was the point of my op.

There is a MASSIVE difference between "Something that's kinda sorta like another thing" and "The exact same thing."

You want to come in here and tell me that rabbits do a thing where they put their food through their digestive system a second time so they can get more nutrients, you go right ahead.

But when you start saying that what they do is best described as "chewing the cud", then you are wrong. To chew cud is something that is very clearly defined, and it does not fit what rabbits do.

Relax. You are taking this waaaay too seriously.

I suspect that you have seen the mountain of evidence against your position and decided that there's no way you can pretend it isn't there, and now you are trying to pretend you were only ever just joking in an effort to get out of it with a little dignity.

Let me ask you: Do rabbits chew the cud? Yes or no?

I just need one word.

@juvenissun has also claimed he is a great teacher. He furthers his claim by stating that there are no bad teachers, only bad students.

I could sue you for defamation. I have never said that.

The reason you say that is because what I said makes you look me as one.

You know what? I'll give that one to you. You claimed you're a good teacher. The rest of what I said still stands, though.

You lied. I never said I am a great teacher.

Uh huh, and I have corrected it say you claimed to be a good teacher.

Speaking of lying, would you like me to point to some of yours?

I do not lie in this forum.

 

[Bungle_Bear]

I do not lie in this forum.

Before I go quoting an example, can we first agree that the following constute lying:

1. Making a statement that you know to be false
2. Continuing to make a claim when it has been demonstrated to be incorrect
3. Making a claim in one thread and claiming the exact opposite either later in that thread or in another thread.

Now is your chance to back out of your dishonest claim, admit that you do lie and I'll say no more.

Nah, OldWiseGuy's got a good sense of humour.

 

[Jimmy D]

You lied. I never said I am a great teacher.

You've certainly not demonstrated it either.

As compared to ruminants, no.
For God's purpose, yes.

I actually agree with the statement (whether juv said it or not). Failure is usually a cooperative effort between teachers and students.

You are not a scientist. You may go away.

As long as a person is more knowledgeable than students, he is a good teacher by default. It is up to the students to learn, but not up the teacher to teach.
