I did not mean *YOU* had confused negative correlation with 0 correlation. I meant that anyone who satisfies your definition of 'closed minded' has clearly confused negative correlation with 0 correlation. How can there be any question about whether or not that's a bad thing to do?

"Your hypothetical race of Liars could not communicate with each other in the practicalities of ordinary life because of the cumbersome nature of the process. By the time you extract from your man what he had for breakfast, it would be lunch time or dinner time and purpose for asking would have passed."

Where in Sodomy do you get the idea that I thought adopting a stance of deliberately deceptive lying was a convenient way to communicate? You asked me how Liars would communicate, so I thought of a way. The method works not only for friendly Liars, but also for Liars who actively do not want you to know the truth.
