Debate This: Blue

WHITE is to COLOR as NATION is to CITIZEN. White is not comparable, which completely destroys the rest of your argument. MANY CITIZENs make up a NATION just like MANY COLORS make up WHITE. The Analogy stands :P

This is too complex. Especially when you think about white light as opposed to the white "color" *


*terminology debated.

COLOR is LIGHT FREQUENCY.

You are thinking PIGMENT here, my friend. St. Paul in his letter to the Americans clearly uses the word PIGMENT different than the word COLOR (compare Americans 3:56 with Americans 4:12-14)

We are clearly called by Jesus Himself to beware of false objects in blue clothing, and Paul warns us to only stay steadfast to the blue which we have received from the Apostles. Blue pigments are like wolves in sheeps clothing, they appear blue but on the inside they have absorbed every color except blue. Black pigments are wishy washy new age types that no longer believe absolute truth or absolute color, to them every color is just someone's opinion. They accept everyone's color as just a personal opinion when in fact blue is the only true color that should be accepted. White pigments reject all color, these are clearly atheists and acolorists.

:P

but it is the very reason that there is no comparison that makes white so much better then all the rest. no other color compares to white. again, u make my argument for me ;)

[quote] MANY CITIZENs make up a NATION just like MANY COLORS make up WHITE.  The Analogy stands :P[/quote]
which analogy? your original one, which i revealed was faulty, or the new analogy you have created?

you seem to say here that white is not a color in and of itself. you will have to refute the arguments i gave for white being a color in order to continue to make this claim.

wow, this is actually gettin heated! hehe, nuthin but love bro,

lol i can't believe we're doing this but you're clearly wrong :P

[quote]i disagree. although white is the culmination of all the colors, it is itself a color as well. [/quote]

i disagree on the grounds that that is just like saying a the nation is a citizen as well.

[quote]for one, white is a new entity, not the shade of a pre-existing color. the fact that i can make something "white" as opposed to "red" or "blue" or any other pre-existing color--and the fact that it is unlike any other color--makes white a color in and of itself. [/quote]

you CANNOT make something white as opposed to red or blue
you can make something that reflects all colors. but the thing you make will reflect a mix of red, green, and blue. It is a mix, not it's own thing.

[quote]secondly, the fact that it is a composite of other colors does not discredit it as a color. that would be like rejecting green as a color b/c it is the composite of yellow and blue, or rejecting purple b/c it is the composite of blue and red.[/quote]

you are #1 clearly thinking of PIGMENTS, this thread is about COLOR. #2, nuh uh :P Light is composed of three primary colors. These three combined compose LIGHT itself. Colors are aspects of light. Colors are light, but light is not a color.

Cyan is the combination of Green and Blue.
Yellow is the combination of Green and Red.
Magenta is the combination of Red and Blue.

Each of these so long as they are not the full spectrum of light are different colors within the spectrum of light. The entire spectrum cannot be considered a color.

I win :P White is ineligable because White is Light and a color must be a Part of Light. :P :P :P :nanny:
