Message: [QUOTE="Dogdeacon, post: 2700752, member: 1026"] By the beard of Zeus, you make this complicated. Let's say both are basketball players. Both among top-5 in league. Both switch teams. For John Q public (a non-NBA fan) won't this be very, very similar (which is one of the things I wrote; "viewed similarly")? If you go back and read my last post about this inanity all I say is that they will be compared. Then you tell me no they are not equivalent. This is a false argument. You are in fact comparing the situations every time you assert that they are not equivalent, but you are able to do so because they ARE comparable. And that is the definition of 'compare'. Sometimes one compares things and finds they are unequal, like your argument vs mine ;). [/QUOTE]
