Grex Paradox Item 16: Accept or Not Accept
Entered by ksrik on Thu Dec 23 14:59:37 UTC 1999:

This happened when I was talking to my friend.

My friend I were arguing about whether one should keep quiet and accept 
defeat even though he is right just because he is not able to explain 
his point of view.

My fried was stating that one should not and I was feeling that when 
one is sure that he can't explain the fact to the other or when one is 
not ready to reason and understand,there is little use in the argument 
and therefore it is better to accept defeat and leave the topic instead 
of an usless argument.

My friend was annoyed and said,  You should not accept everything I say.
I replied back Well "I won't accept every thing you say".

        What does this mean?Do I accept his statement or Don't I?

Duh.  You tell me.  It's semantics.
