My wrong what?

Funny how the ones accusing others of never admitting they are wrong are ones who are at least equally guilty of the same.

Yeah, I can admit when I'm wrong. I can't help it if that doesn't happen often.

Would you ever admit that your wrong?

I demand that you issue a public apology about your grammar.

I try not to admit that I am wrong, therefore I try not to be wrong... Especially around my wife, who is, by the way, never wrong... Don't you hate that? And then she goes and rubs it in your face if you admit that you are wrong... Geesh.

Non. "I am evil" is an oxymoron. "I am wrong" is a perfectly fine phrase.

I always admit that I am wrong, if the new evidence that is introduced to me in the discussion makes me feel that my previous POV was not correct. This is the key to a healthy discussion, and way of thinking.

I have never gotten into an argument, on Poly anyway, where I knew I was right. I don't argue right and wrong.

ACK!

I definitely have been proven wrong here on 'Poly even in my field of study. Then, I admitted I was wrong, and moved to more salient points.

So that's why all our debates drop off the face of the earth.

I'll try to remember that in the future.
