    I have no idea what a “religious realist” is, but it’s not me even if you keep lying about it. You don’t actually know what I believe and this attempt at gaslighting me is not going to work.

      It’s someone who believes in reality. That’s not you?

        Sorry, asking me if I believe what you declare I believe will not gaslight me into believing it either.

        I don’t know what you define as reality. I doubt I believe in what you define as reality, but I could also be wrong about that.

              I know we don’t experience the same universe. But realists won’t accept that fact.

                I thought you said I was a “religious realist” and yet I do accept that. So does that mean you were wrong?

                  No, it means you’re being inconsistent. A day ago you said if I didn’t experience the same reality as you, if I thought reality wasn’t real (objective), I must be mentally ill. How do you square this contradiction?

                    You already pasted what I said and now you’re lying about it again.

                    This is the worst attempt at gaslighting I have ever seen and that’s quite the feat.
