This is the biggest load of horseshit I've ever read. You've broken down a word to its roots, and then used its etymology to create a new definition of the word, and then claim that's what the definition must be because of the etymology.

Whats the etymology of vaccine? I mean, there are so many words that have gone on to have a changed meaning from the roots of it. How a word developed and what it used to mean, does not determine the definition today.

There's nothing theocratic about the theory of relativity. If someone says "oh I have a theory as to what happened" they are more closely saying they have a hypothesis, than they are saying they have God's truth on the subject.

So, i question your authenticity in this discussion, because i find it hard to believe that you genuinely believe what you're saying to me. Im skeptical you're even a real person.

I'll just leave this here
