Hey Darth, thank you for copying me. Please, keep it up! I look forward to you copying me so much that you become me.

From what I can tell, Separation of Church and State just has to do with not sanctioning or prohibiting religions, and also no religious qualified power or power of appointment. It's more to do with avoiding conflict of interest.

While excessive force should be treated seriously, I don't think religious undertakings are prohibited from being employed, and can be adhered to in civilian like manner and as not to be representative of state.

Quoting someone will slowly turn me into someone? I didn't know that. I wonder if WHO has any advice on this problem.

Yes, imitating other people's personality traits leads to you learning to behave like them.

Look, already your first instinct was to check with a respected scientific body to verify the truth of something!

I suppose the WHO is respected in the sense that there are people who respect them. :)

But is quoting someone really imitating them? What if I don't actually type out what you typed, and instead copy and paste? If I do type in what you said but use a Dvorak keyboard, does that lessen the effect?

Oh don't be so coy now Darth, you copied when I called you liar.

It really is quite a bit more effective when you use it to describe someone like you who spouts dishonesty in a constant drizzle, like a peeing cherub fountain. But you realized! Lying is bad. It got through your head that your constant lying was actually a bad thing, and other people would view it negatively.

Maybe some day soon you'll stop, but this is baby steps here.

I just pointed out that you're dishonest, GreyICE, and I showed how. But the "You're copying me!" argument is surely a very logical point, and has been used by such leading thinkers as third graders everywhere.
