But you see, we have to give a word a definition in order for it us to be able to make any thoughts on it.
Its like if i say 'i like apples but not oranges'........now if i change the definitions of apples and oranges around then i would have to change the sentene in order for it to be true, and if I inform the people(that i am telling the new sentence) about the change in definition then they would get the same message as in the first situation.
Someone on these forums recently used a quote asying smoething along the lines of 'When i say a word, i mean only what i chose it to mean, neither more or less'
That's why we have to clearly define what is it that we are exactly discussing in order for us to make any valid logical deductions from it.
