This is complete garbage ican. A circular argument dressed up in verbosity.
1st, This statement you quoted is not an argument.
2nd, This statement you quoted is a specification.
3rd, Your characterization of this specification is irrational.
4th, I wrote about a specific honor that one can bestow on oneself.
5th, One bestows this honor on oneself when one becomes a member of a specified group of people that I label here for my convenience, LLAPOH.
6th, One becomes a member of LLAPOH simply by honoring the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness of all the members of LLAPOH, regardless of any risk.
7th, Ideally, LLAPOH will eventually be comprised of all humanity.
8th, It is an honor to be a member of LLAPOH.
Do you want to join LLAPOH?
