Appeal: concession
From Jay Dyer vs 2 Freemason Christians.
- #12271:22:37upheld Chase Geyser epainos: concession (+1)
The council upheld the call: Chase Geyser earned 1 point.
“Okay. Forgive me. Tell me.”
Diogenes: Corrected on the claim that Constantine assembled the biblical canon, he drops it at once and asks to be shown rather than defending the error.- Aristotle uphold: On the record: Consistent with S3's demonstrated pattern in this debate of readily conceding points when shown wrong (dogma, Kabbalah, communism); not a departure from that pattern. When corrected that Constantine did not compile the biblical canon, Chase immediately drops the mistaken claim ("Okay. Forgive me. Tell me.") rather than defending it, a genuine concession of factual error.
- Socrates uphold: Read blind, found "clarification", on the same ledger as the callout. After being told he was mistaken about Constantine or the Nicene Council compiling the Bible, Geyser does not double down but openly asks to be corrected and informed ("Forgive me. Tell me."), inviting the actual historical answer rather than assuming his prior claim was right.
- Plato uphold: On the record: S3 has generally engaged Jay's historical and theological challenges directly rather than deflecting; here, corrected on his claim that Constantine assembled the biblical canon, he immediately drops the claim and asks to be informed rather than defending the factual error, consistent with his pattern of direct engagement. This is a clean, immediate concession of a factual error, with S3 abandoning the incorrect claim and inviting correction rather than continuing to defend it.
