"If I'm taken seriously isn't based on which way I answer. Seriousness comes from the nature of being skeptical. There is always going to be someone who even if you say yes jumps on you as being off the wall."

Sure, if you say so. :eyes:

"I believe in the ability to have a choice. If you believe the answer is correct then you are going to believe. If you believe the answer is wrong a wall will be built and it will not be taken seriously either way. For me to be taken seriously on anything I must be willing to allow others the chance to have input."

What answer? You still haven't gotten to that. Need more input first?

"I won't force anyone to believe I have the answer."

The implication seems to be that you're capable of forcing people to believe that you have the "answer," but don't choose to apply the requisite pressure. Okey doke...

"If you believe the answer is yes then your heart already knows the answer."

Sure, if you say so. :eyes:

"My question is what do you believe about what was said?"
