This is true. I concede the point and apologize. You are correct that I should have provided more information to make my point more clear.
In this debate you have used much language that my abusive father incidentally used. This does not mean that you are like him. What I have quoted is one example of such language.
I do not think I am following my sin nature at this point, although Ariella probably believes I do. My set of words reflects the sin nature of mankind that Ariella is exhibiting. Let us try this again:
- If you say something while at the same time doing the exact opposite of what you are saying, you are believing a lie.
- If you do something that reflects one belief in one scenario and do something else that reflects the opposite belief in another scenario, you are believing a lie.
- If you speak in favor of one belief in one scenario and then turn and support the opposite belief in another scenario, you are believing a lie.
The truth does not contradict itself. Therefore, if you are contradicting yourself, lies are at the root.
I understand why you don't understand, Iliara, if that helps. I do not expect you, in particular, to understand this.
Now I understand what my opponent's argument is, that it is not a contradiction in terms. Perhaps this was all poor phrasing. But this poor phrasing is reflective and consistent with this emotion that is coming to me, and it reflects the idea of an internal contradiction. It is worthy of Ari's consideration, especially in the wake of such a debate as this one. Whether or not Ari has said contradiction is unknown, but the words reflect it, and I'm an English major. 
I do not know how this is such a point of contention, other than Ari's sin nature resisting consideration of my assessment. We all have sin natures, and I have no occasion to shame a fellow human being for being the unfortunate victim of an internal contradiction. I have had many in the past.
As for my feelings, I am cold and rock steady, as @Eerie_Coppernight has wisely assessed. There is no need to have concern for me. I am very comfortable in this situation. It is very familiar to me. I also understand why you all are uncomfortable, and I am also comfortable with that.
However, this task, at the moment, is too big for me and the discussion is distracting me from other important matters. It took me several years to overcome all of the internal contradictions that I possessed. It would be wise to leave this discussion unresolved for now.
If this form of writing is unfamiliar, this is me outside of my writing abilities. I have foregone emotional acceptability because Ariella's sin nature is precluding her emotional acceptability of my words, and am now in my debate skill defense. This entire discussion reads to me as an emotional attack, which I stand in the midst of, unmoved emotionally. That is the nature of myself in the face of emotional attack. So there is no need to be concerned.
