I see the misunderstanding now. I apologize for being defensive.

This conversation didn't go the way I wanted it to, but at least I learned something.

The last thing I'll say... I think what you see as flip flopping is just me trying to convey the idea that if there is one underlying truth to the universe, no one knows it. We all live in reality bubbles of our own making, philosophically speaking. I think understanding that concept is a crucial component in thinking of ideas that are bigger than ourselves.
