You called him deluded in order to maintain your weakened stance in the thread.
No, I said that beliefs in things that are not true are delusional. My stance hasn't been "weakened".

Where?
He provided a link to a mental health definition of delusion.

I guess you missed it.

Clinically, or in every day use?
In the sense I have been using it. I have not been pretending to be a psychiatrist.

I disagree.

Have I claimed at any point that I have been using the word delusional in any way other than its usual everyday sense?

Nobody has.

5. You realise this includes Dive (who is not only a Christian but has also said he similarly believes in angels). Backed into a corner you announce him as delusional,...and throw him under the bus.
I haven't been "backed into a corner" and I haven't thrown anyone "under a bus".

For most of the thread you used 'delusional' without clarifying you only meant it in a every day wishy washy sense.

I disagree.


@ghost-of-a-duke said
To "throw under the bus" is an idiomatic phrase in English meaning to blame or abandon a person for selfish reasons.

How have I "blamed" or "abandoned" divegeester?

Already answered.

You initially called Suzianne delusional but then in a weakened position abandoned Dive to the same delusion.

Well if you think I have been pretending to be a psychiatrist, then that's a matter for you. I don't see how the word delusion is "wishy washy".

You haven't explained how I have supposedly "blamed" him or "abandoned" him.

The "same delusion"? How so? How is it "the same"?

Only you keep banging on about being a psychiatrist. I'm saying you used delusional in a manner to present Suzianne as mentally unstable and as though men in white coats should come and drag her away. Dive has gone even further.
