{"tags":["grammar","humanity"],"explanation":"
It is amazing how often a word is used in such a way as to negate its meaning in\norder to win an argument. If I start a conversation with you and describe how my\ntiger is so tame, so soft, so adorable and loving, it just loves to lap milk\nfrom its little bowl, rub up against my leg, and look up at me with it’s\nadorable little eyes, you’d suppose I was crazy. However, by tiger, I mean my\nkitty cat named Tiger, so I’m not crazy, I just changed the definition of tiger.
\n\nThe same happens all the time in political and philosophical rhetoric. A Mormon\nmay proclaim he believes in the Christian Godhead, but if you look up the\ndefinition of Godhead in a Mormon theological text you will find a completely\ndifferent definition from the one defined in the Apostles’ Creed. A politician\nmay similarly redefine taxes taken by force and given to others as charity when\nit’s little more than legislated theft. Taxes can be a good, but they can also\nbe an evil.
