Not really. The only thing wrong here is, that he said something from the cognitive sphere, then skipped to the moral sphere which isn't really the case here.

Mantha knows nothing about the awesome debating code, obviously.

I'm glad I don't have any idea about things you think that exist.

I love you too, Mantha.

Quote from Gamer VictorHow can you "not believe facts exist;" facts are defined as anything that is true.
Quit pretending to be a philosopher.

Whoever is saying wikipedia is an invalid source of fact or information can go suck someone's left nut. I wish people (mostly teachers) would actually look at what there talking about before the go off and think "Oh shit, other people can edit this. I guess that means that this article is wrong even though it's clearly right and that it links to other websites that say the EXACT same thing. I better tell my class not to use it and if the do i'll fail them. I r so smarrrrrt.".... Really, I sat down in my library to look up something about my literature class, I get on wikipedia and the FIRST thing I hear from the person behind is "Wikipedia can be like edited by other people and it could be wrong, you should like not use it...". I asked them to find a website that had the information I needed, they did. Then I went to an article that said the SAME THING and checked the sources that went STRAIGHT back to the SAME ****ING site...
This.
Quote from DinomutWikipedia = over 5,000 moderators, constant checks on any changes made to articles, mandatory citations for any edits, and compilation of all material that anyone has access to. It is the ultimate source for anything because it can use information from many sources at once and make a compiled, more thorough explanation to anything that can also be edited if any new info is found. Try to edit an article on Wikipedia with something fake and see how long it takes for them to find it. 5, 10 minutes?
And for those of you who talk about how invalid Wikipedia's articles are, find me one invalid article on Wikipedia.
This.

My friends learnt a lesson in wiki yesterday. They tried to make pages about each other, but within 5 minutes, they were all deleted. Note this was some obscure random page, and nothing in the main body of information there.
@MoD. Get cultured, that line that Jeremy used isn't just from a game.

Quote from MoDYou know your philosophy fails hard when you use quotes from video games to back it up.
Not if it is a hella tight vidya game. I actually spent most of the day trying to figure out who the quote came from, when I found out the actual guy who said it was, then I remembered I heard it from assassins creed.
