Your comment inspired an interesting thread about how nothing can be objectively good or bad. ..until it seems the only thing that is or can be objectively bad is the GP's use of language.

Well, ok, maybe his language wasn't objectively awful, but just philosophically confused, not efficient or sensible use of words for his intended purpose. If you elaborate on that sentence, you will both be able to agree on what was actually meant, coming at it from each side.




I don't think language can be objectively bad. It can be more or less effective in communicating an idea.

I just wanted to help him see the world in a way that is more similar to the way I see it. I think the way I see the world is a good way to see it.

I spreed my perspective like a virus.
