    Let's set the stage:

    If mankind 'created' all words and there was no language to tell anyone what to do;

    What is your duty to God?


    Do we learn from observing nature?

    Would the nature of things show us what is pure?

    How do you manage to get "duty to god" (or not) from mankind's creation of words?
    If I had treacle sponge for lunch should I plant petunias?

    I have no duty to gods.
    WHY would it matter whether nature shows what is pure?

    Obviously, you should plant treacle spong.

    Why is it beneficial to know what is pure?

    -Defend your territory, your tribe, your family, but don't be overly ambitious or aggressive.
    -Learn everything you can about the natural world, and use what seems beneficial.
    -Elect or somehow appoint a leader, able to solve disputes and coordinate the use of force.
    -Expect a couple to pair-bond, and spend a great deal of their resources raising children.
    -Conform to the norms of your culture.

    You have a duty to conform?

    Yes, if we take our cues from nature. Group cohesiveness is very important with social primates.

    You have it backwards.

    A world evolved humans and then humans developed language and created god.

    To help people free from the lie of god.

    Everything we have learned has its roots in nature.

    "Pure" is just a mental abstraction. Nature has things we consider pure. we sometimes increase the purity of this or that for our purposes. But there is nothing magical about something being pure.

    Please define 'pure'.
    And I don't have any duty to something that doesn't exist.

    So i was on the money; before words, what is true?

    that is after 'words'


    Words have been used to define what we experience..


    so it brings the readers opinion into context; ie.... what you call true and what i call true could be varied

    so the word allows each to use their integrity to measure

    now that is abstract as you are changing your environment for your definition, rather than observing the nature of things as they are.

    that's is where reality stands.

    There is no magic, and anything differing from nature is our creation!

    There is no "true" before words.

    Language is prerequisite for social exchange.

    If you say that there is a time where there was no language yet god and the living entity existed, you are obviously referencing something outside of complex social obligations like "duty"


    Does this make language impure?

    (The value of ideas are usually held in the vehicle of language, as opposed to language, per se, being a value based commodity)

    ???

    The premiss is silly. The purpose of language is not to 'tell someone what to do'.

    What's worse, the silly premiss entails nothing whatsoever about neither god nor one's duty.


    Bishadi, even for you, this is stunning nonsense.

    that fits the mind of a liar

    meaning; "everything was true before words"

    When was the last time you were social with God, personally?

    a dog, cat and lion have the same God as you do; but they don't make believe what a god is, because no one is lying to them about what a god is.

    Language is not pure; people are by choice.

    i made a mistake in typing and corrected it

    language is NOT PURE.............. clearly put
